About this learning event

At this workshop, we will focus on sustainable finance and developing green taxonomies, which are comprehensive frameworks that set criteria for determining environmentally sustainable economic activities. These taxonomies are essential for advancing sustainable finance. We will also examine the implications of the EU Taxonomy Regulation. During the workshop, the participants will also gain insight into: 

• Policy context of sustainable finance, 
• The dynamics of green, social, and sustainability bond markets, 
• The International Capital Market Association principles for green, social, and sustainability bonds (ICMA GSS) 
• The proposed EU green bond standard, 
• The essentials of issuing green, social, and sustainability bonds, 
• The concept of 'greenium' and the performance of labeled bonds, and - ESG investing and how debt investors integrate ESG into their strategies and investment portfolios.
