This research paper by the Climate Bonds Initiative (CBI) proposes a framework to evaluate the credibility of corporate decarbonization transitions to prevent 'greenwashing' in transition finance. It introduces five essential characteristics for a credible transition—alignment with the Paris Agreement, robust planning, tangible action, internal oversight, and external reporting—and suggests a certification mechanism for Sustainability-Linked Bonds (SLBs) and corporate entities to provide scientific, standardized benchmarks for investors.

  • The proposed framework categorizes transition labels into three levels: 'Green' for those who have achieved net zero, 'Green Transition' for those on a common sector path toward net zero, and 'Transition Transition' for those working toward that path but not yet aligned. The 'Transition Transition' category is intended to have a limited window, such as until 2025, to prevent indefinite delays in major changes.
  • CBI plans to expand its certification mechanism beyond use-of-proceeds bonds to include Sustainability-Linked Bonds (SLBs), Sustainability-Linked Loans (SLLs), and the corporate entities themselves to provide science-based standards and assurance to investors.
