Navigating Sustainable Finance

Sustainable-debt issuance reached $1.63 trillion in 2024, and though regulation has been critical to driving the growth of sustainable-finance markets, it risks being a distraction if it’s too onerous. The key will be focusing on the 20% of metrics that drive 80% of the impact on our investment decisions, says Dr. Arthur Krebbers, managing director and head of Corporate Climate and ESG Capital Markets at NatWest. In this episode of ESG Currents, Bloomberg Intelligence director of ESG research Eric Kane and ESG analyst Grace Osborne are joined by Dr. Krebbers to discuss the evolving sustainable-finance landscape. The discussion ranges from the role of labeled debt to environmental alpha and the quest for measurable impact as transition finance comes into focus and new products emerge to shape the future of the industry.
