本稿は事業再編ファイナンスが伝統的な流動性・レバレッジ重視からサステナビリティ統合型資本フレームワークへと変容する過程を探る。KPI連動型プライシング、開示要件、検証メカニズムを通じてESGパフォーマンスを資金調達構造に組み込む方法を分析し、BRSRなどの規制動向が説明責任に与える影響を考察する。財務コベナンツからサステナビリティ連動型コベナンツへの移行を捉え、再編ファイナンスが財務戦略・サステナビリティ・保証準備の整合を要するガバナンス主導プロセスへ進化していると結論づける。
English
This paper explores the transformation of business restructuring finance from a traditional focus on liquidity and leverage to a sustainability-integrated capital framework. It examines how sustainability-linked financing instruments embed ESG performance into funding structures through KPI-based pricing, disclosure requirements, and verification mechanisms. The study highlights the impact of regulatory developments such as BRSR on ESG accountability and analyzes the shift from financial covenants to sustainability-linked covenants. It concludes that restructuring finance is evolving into a governance-driven process requiring alignment between financial strategy, sustainability performance, and assurance readiness.

📝 gxceed 編集解説 — Why this matters
日本のGX文脈において
日本ではサステナビリティ連動型融資（SLF）の普及が進むものの、事業再編への適用は限定的。本稿はSLFとESG保証を再編ファイナンスに統合する枠組みを提示しており、SSBJ開示やトランジション・ファイナンスに関心のある企業・金融機関に示唆を与える。BRSRはインド基準だが、日本でも類似の動き（有報でのサステナビリティ情報開示強化）との比較に有用。
In the global GX context
This paper provides a framework for integrating sustainability-linked financing and ESG assurance into restructuring finance, relevant to global discussions on transition finance and ESG-linked covenants. While BRSR is specific to India, the conceptual shift from financial to sustainability-linked covenants resonates with ISSB and SEC climate disclosure trends, offering a practical lens for restructuring practitioners worldwide.

🏢実務担当者:Corporate finance and sustainability teams can use the framework to design restructuring funding that aligns with ESG targets and assurance requirements, potentially improving access to transition finance.
🏛政策担当者:Policymakers developing guidelines for sustainability-linked finance or restructuring regulations should note the emphasis on assurance readiness and KPI-based pricing as mechanisms for accountability.
