Sustainable Finance in Focus: Green Loans—Kickoff Time!
April 30, 2019
The green loan market is still a niche but growing fast: gross issuance hit $60 billion in 2018—up by 30% from 2017
At present, over 75% of outstanding green loans is directed to the renewable energy and power generation sectors
With an average maturity of over 15 years, the green loan market has the potential to become an important source of long-term funding for sustainable infrastructure projects
Across the mature markets, the U.S., the UK and Spain have the largest green loan markets. Across emerging markets, India stands out.
