Green Tick granted access to $100 billion Green Bond market
Green Tick Certification Limited (GTC) is pleased to announce that it has been granted Observer status for Green Bond activities by the International Capital Market Association (ICMA), an association of leading banks, including the World Bank, corporates, and financiers worldwide.
This acceptance by ICMA means that Green Tick has now entered the $100 billion Green Bond and Green Bond project market.
Recently there has been criticism about what constitutes a "green bond", with the 'green' credentials of a number of allegedly 'green projects' under fire. GTC is able to offer the world banking industry established, independent, proven, and government-registered standards for Green Bond certification.
Our New Zealand-based company is the only independent sustainability certification authority listed as a Green Bond Observer with ICMA. We look forward to helping the Green Bond industry provide 'genuinely green' independently certified Green Bonds and Green Bond Projects to world markets.
