Victoria Issues World First: Government Based Green Bond: AUD 300m / USD 225m: Climate Bonds Certified Multisector Green Bond from Australia
Late last month the Geothermal Criteria, under the Climate Bonds Standard, were released into the market allowing issuers the opportunity to certify green bonds linked to geothermal assets.
The first certified green bond in Asia, a flurry of municipal green bonds from three corners of the US: Texas (University of Texas), Massachusetts (Mass Clean Water) and California (San Diego) and repeat green issuances from Korea’s KEXIM, Canada’s Province of Ontario and the US governments’ OPIC. Plus a first time green issuance from New York's MTA this week rounded of a busy start to the month.
