Green finance issuer frameworks – best practice
Green Financing Frameworks (GFF) for corporates and institutions who issue green bonds or take green loans can embody ‘best practice’ in the Sustainable Finance arena. These documents are key for investors to be able to utilise as part of due diligence on green debt investments.
This Sprint will utilise case studies to enable participants to be able to recognise ‘quality’ and identify weaknesses in GFF.
