加拿大财政部10月9日在首都渥太华宣布,加拿大政府本周成功为第七期加元绿色债券定价,以一只新的10年期债券筹资20亿加元。
财政部表示,这期债券投资者需求旺盛,最终订单簿超过36亿加元,其中环境与社会责任型投资者占买家相当大的比例,达44%。绿色债券为其他发行人提供主权基准,也为市场提供有加拿大AAA信用评级支持的高质量绿色投资机会。
财政部介绍,绿色债券募集的资金用于支持绿色基础设施、自然保育等合格绿色支出,以释放私人资本、加快项目建设,并支持经济增长与就业。
据财政部数据,本周这期发行过后,加拿大政府自2022年3月以来累计发行的绿色债券总额增至195亿加元。加拿大在2023年11月更新绿色债券框架,将部分核能支出纳入合格范围;2026年4月,加拿大政府发布了《绿色债券配置与影响报告2024-25》。本期发行于10月7日宣布启动。
Canada Prices Seventh Green Bond Issue, Raising $2 Billion
The Department of Finance Canada announced in Ottawa on October 9 that the Government of Canada this week successfully priced its seventh issuance of Canadian-dollar-denominated green bonds, raising $2 billion in a new 10-year offering.
The department said the issue saw robust demand, with a final order book of over $3.6 billion and environmentally and socially responsible investors representing 44 per cent of buyers. Government of Canada green bond issuances support the growth of Canada's sustainable finance market by providing a sovereign benchmark for other issuers and high-quality green investment opportunities backed by Canada's AAA credit rating.
According to the department, green bonds unlock private capital to speed up projects such as green infrastructure and nature conservation, supporting economic growth, jobs and a cleaner, more resilient Canadian economy.
This week's offering increases the total amount of green bonds issued by the Government of Canada since March 2022 to $19.5 billion. Canada updated its Green Bond Framework in November 2023 to make certain nuclear expenditures eligible, and in April 2026 the government released the Green Bond Allocation and Impact Report 2024-25. The launch of this issuance was announced on October 7.
