Summary
The 2021 China Green Bond Investor Survey reveals a strong demand for high-quality green bonds, particularly in renewable energy and low-carbon transport. While investors value green credentials and credit fundamentals, they highlight significant gaps in transparency and post-issuance disclosure. International investors face barriers related to market access and regulatory quotas. The report emphasizes the need for standardized green definitions aligned with international benchmarks and the adoption of TCFD recommendations to enhance market integrity and attract global capital.
Key insights
- Carbon-neutral bonds, a specific Chinese innovation, are not yet widely recognized as 'greener' than standard green bonds by the majority of investors (69%), with many viewing them simply as a sub-category of green bonds.
