Green Bond Handbook: A Step-By-Step Guide To Issuing A Green Bond

The Green Bond Handbook is a step-by-step and practical guide on how to prepare and execute a successful green bond issuance for financial institutions, specifically designed for use by Emerging Market Financial Institutions. This handbook aims to be a guide for disseminating best practices. For example, it provides guidance on how to structure a green bond which is compliant with the International Capital Market Association (ICMA) Green Bond Principles, which are already adopted by 95% of issuers. The Handbook has been compiled by market practitioners with deep practical experience in working with issuers and investors and will be updated periodically to reflect innovations in practice in the Green Bond market.
