Mobilising capital markets for a low-carbon transition Capital markets have already started to play a role

filling the green investment gap and are expected to

become a dominant source of green capital taking up a

growing share of the $100 trillion global debt markets.

The successful implementation of the COP 21

Agreement implies the materialization of unprecedented

financial means coupled with important economic and

investment opportunities that public sector finance and

traditional bank loans will be unable to provide alone.

With low carbon and climate resilient infrastructure

investments being now a top global priority, the market

of both labelled and unlabelled Green Bonds is likely to

grow significantly across a wide range of borrowers

and industry sectors.

In order to achieve Paris’s climate goals, financial needs

will probably amount to trillions per year (USD 5 trillion

by 2020 according to the International Energy Agency).

A pioneering institution since the earliest days of this market,

LuxSE has grown to be the world leader for the listing of

green bonds, with more than 120 listings.

LuxSE: a pioneering commitment to green values

Since the listing of the first ever Green Bond by the European

Investment Bank (EIB) kicking off the market in 2007, all of

the major green issuers (MDBs, SSAs, financial institutions

and corporates) have trusted LuxSE as the natural location

for green bond listings.

Impressive growth since 2007

Selection of green issuers“Iberdrola is really comfortable with the level

of assurance provided both by the CSSF and the

LuxSE, where their bonds have been listed for

decades. The depth of this market allows the

Company to achieve the expected degree of

availability for international investors. This has

been developed even more with the recent birth of

LGX, where Social Responsible Investors can easily

find the kind of securities they are looking for.”
