CICERO, the award-winning global leader in providing green ratings to the financial sector, will from 1 December 2018 establish a new company to professionalise its independent research-based evaluations of green bonds.
Both social and green aspects have been reviewed by CICERO and the International Institute for Sustainable Development (IISD) for The Agricultural Development Bank of China’s first green and sustainability bond framework.
Being a leading provider of second opinions on green bonds for the last ten years, CICERO has seen how the market has grown and developed. If the financial sector is serious about climate, green investments are needed in all sectors.
Flooding events are hitting many parts of the world, causing big infrastructure damage. But flooding can also have large indirect costs for the global economy. In a new report, CICERO analyses the total costs of four flooding events. An increasing share of costs are left uninsured, the authors warn.
In this project, CICERO and TERI, the Indian Energy and Resources Institute, are examining bilateral climate finance flows from Norway to India, among other countries, to identify how public funds can be used to leverage private climate finance.
