📢 A team led by Elaine Keats and Sirae Chen has advised The World Bank on the issuance of its nine-year US$225m, principal-protected Amazon Reforestation-Linked Bond – the largest World Bank outcome bond ever. 🌲 The bond will provide investors with a coupon that includes a fixed guaranteed component and a variable component linked to the generation of Carbon Removal Units from #reforestation projects in the #Amazonrainforest regions of Brazil. It is the first bond linking investors’ financial return to the removal of carbon from the atmosphere, differing from past transactions linked to the sale of #carboncredits from avoided emissions. 💬 Elaine Keats commented: "The Amazon Reforestation-Linked Bond marks a milestone in aligning private capital with tangible environmental and socioeconomic change. We are pleased to have supported the World Bank on another innovative bond which goes beyond traditional structures to create substantial mutual benefits among financial markets, environmental goals, and community development."
