Política Pública en Materia de Bonos Verdes: Principales Avances de 2016

This briefing by the Climate Bonds Initiative outlines the progress of public policy regarding green bonds in 2016 and projections for 2017. It highlights the emergence of sovereign green bonds, the role of green bonds in financing Nationally Determined Contributions (NDCs), and various innovative financial tools used by governments to attract private capital for climate infrastructure.

• Green bonds have become a primary mechanism for governments to raise capital to implement their Nationally Determined Contributions (NDCs) following the entry into force of the Paris Agreement in 2016.
• The year 2016 saw the first national government issue a sovereign green bond, with Poland issuing the first in December 2016, followed by France one month later. In early 2017, France launched a sovereign green bond totaling 7.5 billion dollars.
• Governments are employing diverse innovative tools to stimulate green bond markets, including tax incentives proposed by Kenya's Capital Markets Authority, credit enhancement tools from the US Overseas Private Investment Corporation and USAID, and seed capital funds announced by the IFC and BNDES in Brazil.
• Significant investment is required for mitigation projects within NDCs for 21 emerging markets between 2016 and 2030, totaling 23 trillion USD. This includes 2.1 trillion USD for India, 1.3 trillion USD for Brazil, and 104 billion USD for Nigeria.
• The public sector aims to use public capital as a lever to facilitate private capital flows into climate investments, with a goal of consolidating a green debt market of at least one trillion dollars per year by 2020.
