Anglo American Capital plc is wholly owned by Anglo American plc, which is publicly listed on the London Stock Exchange (the primary listing), the JSE Limited, the SIX Swiss Exchange, the Botswanan Stock Exchange and the Namibian Stock Exchange. Shares are widely held with no shareholder owning more than 10% of the company’s shares.                                 

 The proposed A loan of up to US$100 million will be aimed at general corporate purposes in support of activities related to the Anglo American group’s livelihoods and education goals under its SMP in South Africa.

The A loan is structured as an SLL, following the Loan Market Association’s Sustainability Linked Loan Principles. IFC has assisted Anglo American in defining the key performance indicators (“KPIs”) for the SLL, assessing the ambitiousness of the targets, and drafting a sustainability-linked financing framework. The margin of the proposed SLL will be linked to two KPIs, related to the Anglo American group’s education and livelihood programs in South Africa and consistent with certain of Anglo American’s broader 2025 sustainability targets, as laid out in the Thriving Communities pillar of its SMP, of: (i) supporting schools in host communities to perform within the top 30% of state schools nationally; and (ii) creating or supporting three off-site jobs for every job onsite.                                  

 The education and livelihood activities are focused on the mining communities surrounding the company’s operations in the Limpopo, Mpumalanga, Northern Cape, and North-West provinces of South Africa.
