LONDON - The Netherlands became on Tuesday the first AAA-rated sovereign to offer investors a green bond, saying it would give preference to funds that prove their own environmentally friendly credentials.
The Netherlands follows euro zone peers Poland, France, Belgium and Ireland which have all sold green bonds. Investors and bankers said it was the first time they had seen the issuer, in this case the Dutch debt agency DTSA, explicitly prioritizing investors with green credentials and offering them a more favorable allocation.
With increasing regulatory scrutiny over the origin of funds, issuers are taking provisions to know their end clients.
