Sustainable bonds: State of the market and policy considerations

OnlineNov 13, 2024 | 3:00 PM - 4:30 PM

Description

At the end of 2023, the global outstanding amount of sustainable bonds reached USD 4.3 trillion, up from USD 641 billion just five years prior. The rapid growth of the sustainable bond market is a reason for optimism. If the proceeds of all sustainable bond issuances are invested in projects that deliver environmental and social benefits for relatively small costs, investors and society at large will profit. However, the regulatory frameworks and relevant institutions must guarantee that markets work efficiently and that investors’ interests are protected. This session will focus on chapter 3 of the OECD Global Debt Report 2024: Bond Markets in a High-Debt Environment, which examines the state of the market and policy considerations around sustainable bonds.
