On March 24, 2017 The Straights Times reported that Singapore will launch a grant scheme in June 2017 to promote the issuance of green bonds.
National Development Minister Lawrence Wong made the announcement at the Investment Management Association of Singapore’s (IMAS) annual conference.
“Under the green bond grant scheme, issuers can offset up to $100,000 of costs incurred from obtaining an independent review based on international green bond standards. To qualify, the bonds can be denominated in any currency but must be issued in Singapore, with a minimum size of $200 million and tenure of at least three years.”
