WHAT IS A GREEN BOND?
GREEN BOND FINANCING
A green bond is a fixed-income instrument specifically earmarked to raise money for climate and environmental projects. These bonds are typically asset-linked and backed by the issuing entity’s balance sheet, so they usually carry the same credit rating as their issuers’ other debt obligations. Green bonds are designated to encourage sustainability and support climate-related or other special environmental projects. More specifically, green bonds finance projects aimed at energy efficiency, pollution prevention, sustainable agriculture, fishery and forestry, the protection of aquatic and terrestrial ecosystems, clean transportation, clean water, sustainable water management, and, most importantly, carbon emissions law compliance solutions.
They also finance the cultivation of environmentally friendly technologies and climate change mitigation.
