JFM and Sewerage
JFM was established as a joint funding organization wholly owned by all
Japanese local governments and has provided long term and low interest rateloans to local governments. JFM supported local government’s finance in thecapital markets and contributed to their sound financial management andpromoted the welfare of its residents.
Local governments, amidst a decrease in the Japanese population, are facing
various administrative issues, such as promoting the revitalization of regions,
measures against the declining birth rate and an aging population, deteriorating
infrastructure, measures against large-scale and intensifying natural disasters.
To address these challenges, JFM provide loans to local governments whodevelops infrastructure and administrative services to its residents of the region
and contribute to a sustainable development of the region’s community andenvironment.

Sewerage, which covers the largest portion of JFM’s loan portfolio, is managed by local governments and the quality of water isregulated under the laws of Japan. Sewerage play an important role and contributes to the improvement of living conditions,prevention of floods and preservation of water quality through waste water treatment and rain water drainage. The national
government and the local government work together to create a sustainable sewerage system such as measures against aging
facilities and minimizing the effect of national disasters and JFM contribute to a sustainable development of the system byproviding loans to local governments.
The Japanese government has set specific targets on sewerage business based on the Paris Agreement, by setting
environmental measures such as sludge recycle rate. Moreover, in accordance with the Act on Promoting of Global WarmingCountermeasures and its related policies, Japan has set a policy goal of achieving the utilization rate of sewage sludge as energy
such as biomass power generation.

• Alignment with the Green Bond Principle,
2018(GBP)• JFM’s Green Bond Framework is aligned with four
core components of the GBP
1. Use of Proceeds• An amount equal to the net proceeds will be allocatedto the Eligible Green Projects set forth below
2.Process for Project Evaluation and Selection• JFM Loan Department will confirm that the borrower
has obtained consent or approval on the borrowing
from relevant authorities• Green Bond Working Group will conduct a survey tomunicipalities to determine the effective portfolio
3.Management of the Proceeds• JFM’s Green Bond Working Group will track, monitor
and account for the allocation of the proceeds
4.Reporting• JFM Green Bond Working Group will conduct asurvey on municipal borrowers with respect to theenvironmental impacts of sewerage projects• JFM Green Bond Working Group will then report theeffective portfolio for the allocation which only includes
projects that borrowers return effective response• JFM will publish the following impact report on
website annually✓Amounted of net proceeds of the Notes allocated✓Break down of Effective Portfolio✓Expected or estimated KPIs

The area of Osaka City is only less than 0.1% of the total area of Japan, or about
225 km2, where about 2.75 million people (2.2% of Japan's total population) reside,
forming one of the largest metropolitan areas in the world.
Located close to western gateways of Japan such as Itami Airport and KansaiInternational Airport, Osaka City has been accelerating its internationalization as acenter of the Japanese economy with increasing foreign tourists and residents.
In such settings, Osaka City will host the World Exposition in 2025 for the second

Hiruzen Kogen Highlands

In the northern part of the City, dairy farming is thriving on Hiruzen Kogen Highlands,
which especially boasts the nation's largest production of Jersey cows and its dairy
products are well-known throughout Japan.
About 80% of the total area of Maniwa City is covered by forests. Historically, forestry
flourished in the south, where a large number of logging and wood processing companies
are still in business. A woody biomass power plant utilizing forest resources in this area isalso in operation and provides electricity to sewage facilities.
Maniwa City is actively promoting its initiatives to achieve the SDGs. The City has been
selected as one of 29 “SDGs future cities” by the Japanese Cabinet Office and has also
been selected as one of 10 “local government SDGs model projects for its pioneering
initiatives to achieve the SDGs.
