​​ ​Amazonia Bond Initiative
The main objective of this project is to create a roadmap for Amazonia Bonds issuance to support environmental and social sustainability in the Amazonia region and strengthen the institutional capacity of various ecosystem actors, including sovereigns, public development banks operating in the Amazon region and private entities. The proposal will work on the demand-side of capital markets finance building institutional and technical capacity of potential issuers of Amazonia Bonds, and on the supply-side by engaging with investors, international standard setters and local capital market regulators and involve local communities and indigenous populations early on the development of the concept. To achieve these objectives, the two Banks will deploy technical assistance to support issuers individually to access international thematic capital markets via use of proceeds and sustainability-linked bonds considering relevant environmental and social benefits and safeguard mechanisms deriving from the issuance of Amazonia bonds and thereby contribute to a just transition to a low-carbon, climate-resilient and deforestation-free Amazon.
