Why and how do we add Sustainable Commercial Paper to Onbrane ?
Onbrane currently provides the debt capital markets with a multi-product negotiating platform across multiple markets. In 2020, we have received a strong demand from many players who wish to issue debt which is labeled as green, social and sustainability-linked. These labels are applicable to any debt product and at any maturity. They contribute to the growth of sustainable finance. Our ambition is to support all market players in their sustainable transformation.
Why and How we add the NeuMTN on our platform
NeuMTNs are part of Onbrane’s genesis. The platform was implemented primarily to improve processes and simplify negotiations of the short- term debt. To do so we decided to begin with the French Commercial Paper market instruments (NeuCP and NeuMTN), that were created following the modernization of the French treasury bill market on May 31, 2016, led by the Banque de France. At first, in 2019, we wanted to focus on implementing the NeuCP on the platform as a Proof-of-Work of our project.
Why Bitcoin is an opportunity for the environment
Bitcoin is far from being the energy glutton portrayed in mainstream media. On the contrary, the Bitcoin ecosystem is accelerating the transition to renewable energy sources and decentralized economic development.

Exploring the world of sustainable finance with Onbrane
Finance is not an end in itself but a means to realize ambitious objectives. Since 2015, almost all countries have ratified the Paris climate agreement, which makes finance a fundamental element in the fight against climate change. Today, the climate consequences are already here, while trillions of dollars are necessary to mitigate and adapt our economies to global warming. Thus, the window of time to limit the temperature increase to 2°C above pre-industrial levels is shrinking. And the scale of investment required is beyond the capacity of the public sector alone.
