Climate Bonds CONNECT 2025 Kicks Off in Panama City! 

 

We’re excited to announce that Climate Bonds CONNECT 2025 is launching in Panama City with a special Latin America & Caribbean Regional Conference on 29 May 2025. This in-person event will gather leading voices in sustainable finance, policy, and industry to explore the future of green finance across the region.

 

This year’s conference will spotlight the growing role of sustainable debt, including thematic bond issuance, the development of sustainable finance taxonomies, and the critical contributions of development banks in supporting low-carbon economies. With a strong regional focus, the agenda will also explore how countries across Latin America and the Caribbean are advancing resilience and mobilising investment in adaptation strategies. 

 

This event is made possible with the generous support of: Scotiabank, IDB Invest, Bolsa Latinoamericana de Valores (Latinex), LAGreen Fund, S&P Global Ratings, Ambire Global and Pacific Corporate Sustainability Latam.
