Climate Bonds has strongly promoted the EU's Platform on Sustainable Finance and helped contribute to its important work. To support its work across Europe, as well as other regions around the world, Climate Bonds produces: State of the Market reports, quarterly highlights reports, regional and country-specific reports and updates. In addition, the organisation tracks post-issuance reporting and green bond pricing in the primary market, green bond underwriter league tables and stock exchanges with green/sustainability bond segments. Climate Bonds issues thematic reports as well ( e.g. on sectors and structures used in the market), while also producing guides to facilitate issuance. Climate Bonds publishes regular market news, designed as both a journal of record for bond issuance and updates on investment news and research material to fixed income investment in climate solutions. CBI maintains a bond library for new issuers over the past 10 years.
