Climate Bonds in partnership with HSBC invite you to the online launch of the ASEAN Sustainable Finance State of the Market 2020 report, produced with the support of HSBC.

The ASEAN sustainable finance market expanded in 2020 despite the negative impact of COVID-19.

Market and investor interest is increasingly being focused on the role that green bonds, green loans, social and sustainability bonds can play in sustainable development, infrastructure investment and low carbon growth paths.

Following on from our landmark Green Finance report of 2020, our first ASEAN Sustainable Finance- State of the Market report analyses in detail regional and national investment developments across green, social and sustainable labels.  

Join us for insights on key trends and developments for the sustainable finance market in ASEAN in 2020, including market growth, the role that Development Finance Institutions (DFIs) like the International Finance Corporation (IFC) could play in shaping the region’s sustainable finance ecosystem, opportunities brought about by the “build back better” agenda, and what we may expect to see in 2021 for sustainable finance in ASEAN.
