  • The Climate Bonds Initiative uses a three-step process to determine if a bond is eligible for its database: first, identifying bonds labeled as 'green'; second, screening assets or projects for alignment with the Climate Bonds Taxonomy; and third, judging whether the proceeds are used for eligible projects or assets.
  • The Climate Bonds Taxonomy categorizes eligible green assets into eight sectors: Energy, Transport, Buildings, Water Management, Waste Management and Pollution Control, Nature-based Assets (including land use, agriculture, and forestry), Industrial and Energy-intensive Businesses, and Information and Communication Technology (ICT).
  • The Climate Bonds Standard and Certification Scheme acts as a labeling program similar to Fair Trade, ensuring alignment with the Paris Agreement's 2-degree Celsius limit. Bonds that achieve this certification are automatically included in the Green Bond Database.
