What is a green bond?
Green bonds are debt instruments issued to fund projects that have a positive environmental or climate impact. Proceeds from these bonds are typically earmarked for green projects and are backed by the issuer’s entire balance sheet.
A number of different standards, frameworks, taxonomies and labels are included in the LGX eligibility criteria:
- Bond standards: ICMA’s Green Bond Principles, Social Bond Principles and Sustainability Bond Guidelines, the Climate Bonds eligibility taxonomy, the People’s Bank of China Green Bond Endorsed Projects Catalogue and other frameworks aligned with the former.
- Fund labels: LuxFLAG’s Climate Finance, Environment, Social and ESG labels, FNG’s label for sustainable mutual funds, the Nordic Swan Ecolabel for funds, the French Government’s SRI and TEEC labels.
Note that (as per CBI) the PBOC Green Bond Endorsed Project Catalogue accepts retrofits of fossil fuel power stations, clean coal and coal efficiency improvements, and rail lines that mainly transport fossil fuels, which are not accepted under the Climate Bonds Initiative’s eligibility taxonomy.
