Labeled bond markets are growing… but analysis can still be inconsistent. For fixed income investors, quality and comparability matter: how do you evaluate labeled and sustainability-linked bonds consistently across issuers, regions, and disclosure practices? Our Sustainability Bond Rating is designed to help. It assesses labeled debt against international standards and climate benchmark alignment – including bond-level Paris-Aligned Benchmark (PAB) and Climate Transition Benchmark (CTB) indicators. What it delivers: ➡️A comprehensive bond assessment across proceeds/targets, standards alignment, and issuer strategy ➡️Clear, comparable output via a 12-point scale (D- to A+), plus bond-specific raw data for transparency ➡️Coverage across Green, Social, Sustainability, Transition, and Sustainability-linked Bonds, including corporate, sovereign, and agency issuance We also recently introduced enhancements driven by client feedback – including more granular bond-level climate metrics, PAB/CTB flags, and faster ISIN search to streamline day-to-day workflows. Request a demo to see how it can support your labeled debt screening, research, and reporting workflows: https://lnkd.in/eVRwyaqE. 📣Recognized for innovation: Sustainability Bond Rating was awarded “Most Innovative ESG Product” at the ESG Investing Awards 2026. #FixedIncome #SustainabilityBonds #SustainabilityLinkedBonds #GreenBonds #ClimateRisk #BondResearch
