Green bond financing has recently expanded to include convertible bonds, with 2020 seeing a record level of new issuance for the asset class. Convertible bonds -- which can be converted by the holder into the common stock of the issuing company -- have proved resilient during the Covid-19 crisis. In this context, green convertible bonds have emerged.
Since May 2020, nine companies have issued green convertible bonds. Among them is Neoen, which issued the first European green convertible bond for €170m on 28 May. Neoen is a renewable energy company that builds and manages power plants in solar, wind and biomass.
