The US Municipal market is seeing an increased focus on Green, Social and Sustainable bonds, both from the point of view of issuers, as well as from investors. However, given the scale of the Muni market, there is opportunity for the market to develop much further.
To mobilise institutional money, and dedicated mandates which could help to drive policy change and shift capital at scale, the market needs more benchmark deals from the full range of economic sectors.
The purpose of the webinar, hosted by CBI and sponsored by the London Stock Exchange, is to provide an overview of the Green Muni Bond opportunity, targeting primarily issuers and investors in this market segment.
Speakers:
o Mike Brown, Environmental Finance Manager, San Francisco Public Utilities Commission
o Emily Robare, Head of Muni ESG Research, Pimco
o Aude Rajonson, Head of Fixed Income Origination, London Stock Exchange Group
o Candice Partridge, Social and Sustainability Bond Data Manager, Climate Bonds Initiative.

The Climate Bonds' Policy Team completed a report examining ASEAN central banks’ exposure to climate transition risks with a particular focus on Indonesia, the Philippines and Vietnam.
How the report reflected on these risks was by doing an analysis of combined data from credit filings by banks to the central bank supervisory section, bonds data collected by Asia Bond Monitor and “bottom-up” deal level data extracted from commercial databases of lending and bond issuance.
The primary recommendation from the data analysis was on how the taxonomies under development could be used to ensure banks are able to track their climate transition risks exposure through their portfolios.
We would like to encourage a conversation about the report’s findings on challenges to the financial sector in re-directing lending from fossil fuel to renewables and potential actions central banks might take to support the transition. |

Colombia ha avanzado en su agenda ambiental y de desarrollo sostenible, esto se refleja en la firma del Acuerdo de París, por medio de sus Contribuciones Nacionalmente Determinadas (NDCs), la alineación con los Objetivos de Desarrollo Sostenible (ODS), así como en el desarrollo de instrumentos de política de cambio climático.
Existe una gran brecha entre el financiamiento verde requerido y el efectivamente movilizado ante lo cual es necesario el involucramiento de sectores público y privado que permita desarrollar un ecosistema atractivo para el financiamiento de proyectos climáticos y ambientales.
Reunir a la comunidad de inversores con los encargados de formular políticas y los desarrolladores de proyectos, puede ayudar a desarrollar enfoques innovadores y compartidos para abordar los desafíos financieros en sectores claves para los objetivos climáticos.
Bajo este contexto, este Webinar pretende compartir conocimiento e intercambiar experiencias de diferentes instrumentos financieros como lo son los fondos para la canalización de recursos públicos, privados y mixtos, con el propósito de analizar sus prácticas y ayudar en la
estructuración de nuevos mecanismos de financiamiento con enfoque sostenible en Colombia.
