ABN Amro Analysts See ESG Bond Issuance Dropping ‘Considerably'
Issuance of euro-denominated ESG bonds is likely to see a pronounced decline in 2025, as negative sentiment fanned by political backlash weighs on the market, according to analysts at ABN Amro NV.
ESG issuance is 'expected to considerably lag in 2025,' amid 'a noticeable surge in negative news related to ESG in the first half of the year,' analysts Marta Ferro Teixeira and Filipa de Carvalho Tomás wrote in a note on Friday.
