ESG-Centric Financial Instruments To Surpass the $1 Trillion Mark

Issuance of #green, #social and sustainability (GSS) and #sustainability-linked bonds (SLBs) are to hit an unprecedented level of $1.35 trillion in 2022, according to Moody's ESG Solutions.

It will be the first time that the #investment level will have exceeded $1 trillion, and marks a 36% increase year-over-year. This said, the rate of growth is only half of what was seen over the 2020 to 2021 period, suggesting the #esg #investments market’s GSS and SLB pace of growth is slowing.

Still, the figures are impressive.

One hopes that the projects delivered by the companies and #business leaders raising the funds will be equally impressive.
