Singapore has recently launched its Green Plan 2030, a testament to its firm commitment to transition into a low-carbon economy. Green finance is a key component of the plan with the government announcing the use of green bonds to finance public infrastructure projects. Meanwhile, infrastructure financing is a huge challenge to Asia, particularly to the emerging economies of Southeast Asia. With public funding already under pressure, mobilizing private capital is crucial. While interest is high, private capital continues to be sidelined as traditional project financing issues remain. Singapore’s green infrastructure bonds may prove to be what is needed to jumpstart private sector participation.

Join us as a panel of experts and investors discuss how green bonds could be used to finance infrastructure projects in a webinar discussion organized by The Asset in association with Fitch Ratings.
