TISE Sustainable also provides qualifying issuers and their securities with enhanced connectivity, credibility, transparency and visibility among investors. The “TISE Sustainable” segment is available to all TISE-listed issuers – including bond issuers and equity issuers – who comply with at least one recognised framework or rating.

An application for admission to the TISE Sustainable market segment can be made at the same time as an application to list on TISE’s Official List, although the approval of the admission to TISE Sustainable will only take place once admission to TISE’s Official List has been granted.

As for requirements for admission to the TISE Sustainable market segment, either (i) the issuer’s business, or that of its wider group; or (ii) the use of the proceeds raised by the issuance of a security will need to be verified as having an environmental, social or sustainable purpose by an independent party against a recognised framework.

TISE has also announced its membership of the United Nation’s Sustainable Stock Exchanges (“SSE”) initiative as a Partner Exchange. The SSE provides a global platform for exploring how stock exchanges, collaborating with investors, issuers, regulators, policymakers and relevant international organizations, can enhance ESG (environmental, social and corporate governance) issues and encourage sustainable investment, including the financing of the UN Sustainable Development Goals.

Whilst offering a “Recognised Stock Exchange” for the purposes of UK HM Revenue & Customs TISE’s robust but proportionate listing rules, combined with TISE’s pragmatic and commercial approach to listings, often appeals to issuers from the United Kingdom, Europe, the United States and Asia.
