Singapore Exchange launches initiative to recognize sustainable securities

Chicago, Nov. 28 – The Singapore Exchange Ltd. launched an initiative to identify green, social and sustainability fixed-income securities, according to a notice.

The identification will be based on investments that meet certain criteria at issuance, including alignment with recognized green, social or sustainability standards; confirmation by an external reviewer; and, publicly published reports setting out alignment with recognized standards.

There are already some 200 of SGX-listed fixed-income securities that already meet the criteria and will be onboarded over the next few months.

Singapore Exchange is a Singapore-based securities and regional derivatives exchange.
