Amongst many important players in global sustainable finance, the International Capital Market Association (ICMA), through its Green Bond Principles, has continued to set the market standard for issuing green, social, sustainability, and sustainability-linked bonds in order to attract the required capital to finance sustainable development initiatives.<\/p>\n<p>FMDQ Group PLC (\u201cFMDQ Group\u201d or \u201cFMDQ\u201d), in alignment with its drive to champion sustainable finance, and institute global best practices in the operation of the FMDQ Green Exchange, sought and was granted approval to be an Observer Member of the ICMA Green Bond Principles. The ICMA Green Bond Principles, are voluntary process guidelines that recommend transparency and disclosure and promote integrity in the development of the green bond market by clarifying the approach for issuance of a green bond. The Green Bond Principles aim to support issuers in financing environmentally sound and sustainable projects that foster a net-zero emissions economy and protect the environment.<\/p>\n<p>As a Member of ICMA since 2015, this admission to ICMA\u2019s Principles will provide FMDQ with date information on the latest developments in the global market, enable FMDQ to play a practical role in shaping the future of the green bond market, and provide FMDQ access to the leading global framework for the issuance of sustainable bonds. Speaking about this development, the Managing Director, FMDQ Securities Exchange Limited (\u201cFMDQ Exchange\u201d or \u201cthe Exchange\u201d), Ms. Tumi Sekoni said \u201cWe are pleased to announce its admission as an Observer Member of the ICMA Green Bond Principles.
