HONG KONG,Sept. 26,2022 -- Royal Golden Eagle ("RGE"),a global group of resource-based manufacturing companies,announced that its group treasury team has won two awards at CorporateTreasurer Awards 2022,one of Asia Pacific's leading awards programmes for the corporate treasury industry.

RGE was one of the winners in the Best Treasury and Finance Strategies category which recognises the development of revolutionary approaches and solutions that generate positive impact for the treasury and finance departments. It joins several global brands in the winners list such as BP,HSBC,OCBC and Standard Chartered.

Patrick Ng,Group Treasurer at RGE commented: "The awards are an endorsement of the treasury team's effective treasury management which is supporting the group's business expansion and growth. Their professionalism and competence were instrumental in the winning of this award."

Mr. Ng was awarded Best Treasurer in the Marquee Awards category,which acknowledges achievements across various roles in the corporate treasury function including Chief Financial Officer ("CFO"),Treasury Team and Treasury Consultant.

RGE emerged ahead of the competition due to its achievements in the sustainability-linked loans ("SLL") market. RGE was among the first non-property players to issue an SLL and the second largest issuer of SLLs in Singapore in 2021. To-date,its total amount of SLLs has reached USD1.8 billion. It is also a pioneer in carbon finance deals in China.

The ESG key performance indicators in its SLLs are closely tied to the group's long-term sustainability commitments as part of its Sustainability Vision 2030. This helps to bring both the company's financing channels and enhanced sustainability commitments into alignment.

"Our 2030 sustainability commitments include emission reduction,economic circularity,clean energy use and inclusivity. Moving forward,we aim to tap more SLLs and other green and ESG-linked financial instruments for the majority of our funding and treasury activities while keeping our banking partners closely informed about RGE's latest ESG developments," added Mr. Ng.

Held annually,the CorporateTreasurer Awards honour the achievements of corporate treasurers,CFOs,service providers and financial institutions who help to redefine the role of the treasury function.
