Mobilising Bond Markets for a Low-Carbon Transition
This report describes the development of the green bond market as an innovative instrument
for green finance, and provides a review of policy actions and options to promote
further market development and growth. Since 2007-08, so-called “green bonds” have
emerged and the market has risen from USD 3 billion in 2011 to USD 95 billion in issuance
in 2016. For policy makers, the report proposes a framework for understanding potential
directions of bond market evolution, increased convergence of rules and definitions,
and quantitative analysis of the potential contribution that bond markets can make
to a low-carbon transition.
