Environmental Finance is delighted to announce that its seventh annual Green Bonds Europe conference will take place on 19 June at the Hilton Tower Bridge Hotel in London.

It's been a blockbuster 2016 for the green bond market, with more than double the value of issuance of 2015, credit ratings agencies joining the market, with new geographies and industry sectors coming to market for the first time, innovative bond structures being launched and significant pricing advantages being reported.

With new geographies and industry sectors coming to market for the first time and innovative bond structures being launched, this is perhaps the most interesting period yet in the market's development. 

Join the greatest green bonds discussion this year!

Join this event to discuss the drivers behind the green bond boom and how to ensure sustainable growth as the market matures. Last year over 300 delegates have joined this conference with more than half from the issuer and investor community.

The event has attracted delegates from across the globe: from Australia to the USA, from Mexico to Singapore, and from North Africa, Europe and UK…
