Stock Exchange Launches Green Bond Trading Platform

The new platform enables listed companies to raise capital for renewable energy and sustainability projects.

The Stock Exchange has launched a dedicated green bond platform, allowing companies to raise funds for certified environmental projects. Three issuers have already listed bonds worth a combined $120 million.

Regulators say the platform aligns with international climate finance standards and will be expanded to include sustainability-linked instruments next year.
