Quarterly sustainable bond issuance by label ($Value)
Provisional data for Q1 2024 shows a general uptick in issuance of all labels from the previous quarter except for sustainability linked bonds which have had their weakest quarter since Q1 2021 and have been on a downward trend since their peak in Q4 2021. Conversely transition bonds have had a record-breaking quarter due to Japan’s pioneering sovereign transition bonds.
Green bonds remain by far the largest label while sustainability and social bonds have kept at similar levels in Q1 2024, with sustainability bonds slightly outperforming social bonds for the first time since Q1 2023. Overall Q1 2024 has been one of the strongest quarters on record.
