The launch of this report was made possible thanks to the collaboration and continued support of BIVA, which hosted the launch event. The study details an impressive USD38.3bn of cumulative issuance of Green, Social, Sustainability, and Sustainability-Linked Bonds (GSS+) aligned with Climate Bonds\u2019 screening methodologies issued in the county by the end of 2023. This represents a 25% year-over-year (YoY) increase, underlining Mexico\u2019s position as the second largest market for labelled bonds within Latin America and the Caribbean (LAC).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Key Findings:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Market Leadership: <\/strong>In 2023, Mexico&#8217;s GSS+ bonds issuance reached USD14.7bn in alignment with Climate Bonds&#8217; screening methodologies, which represents 25% increase in aligned volume. This solidifies Mexico&#8217;s leading position in the LAC sustainable finance market, representing 21% of the region&#8217;s total cumulative volume\u200b by the end of 2023<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Sovereign and Development Bank Contributions:<\/strong> Significant contributions came from sovereign issuers and development banks, with the public sector accounting for 75% of the total volume. The Mexican government issued 14 sustainability deals worth USD13.3bn, while the local development bank Banobras issued 17 deals totaling USD4.5bn of cumulative issuance\u200b.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Sectoral Opportunities:<\/strong> The report highlights substantial investment opportunities in the circular economy, sustainable infrastructure, low-carbon buildings, transportation, and nature-based solutions such as reforestation and sustainable land management which could be aligned with the Mexican Sustainable Taxonomy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Market Trends:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Enhanced Alignment Rates:<\/strong> In 2023, 83% of Mexico\u2019s GSS+ debt volumes issued adhered to Climate Bonds&#8217; methodologies, reflecting improved disclosure practices and alignment with technical screening criteria\u200b. This percentage is higher than the global rate (80%) and the LAC rate (75%).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Dominance of Sustainability Bonds:<\/strong> Sustainability bonds dominated Mexico&#8217;s GSS+ market, accounting for 72% of the cumulative aligned volume\u200b issued in Mexico and 43% in LAC, where green bonds dominate.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Infrastructure and Manufacturing Focus: <\/strong>Increased demand for sustainable infrastructure projects, driven by nearshoring and federal initiatives, and the manufacturing sector&#8217;s role as a significant GDP contributor highlight the market&#8217;s diverse investment potential\u200b.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Kurt Vogt, Board Member \u2013 LAGreen: &#8220;At LAGreen, we are thrilled to see the significant strides Mexico has made in sustainable finance, particularly in the thematic bond market. As the report shows, it is not only about the impressive growth of this segment of the fixed income market, but also the impact credentials of the bonds placed, the number of new issuers and the diversity of sectors represented. This outcome results from of the good work conducted over the years by key market players such as local and international development banks, financial institutions, institutional investors, market associations and issuers. We are therefore proud to support initiatives that drive the development of this vibrant and innovative market and to contribute to a sustainable future for all.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Andr\u00e9s Felipe S\u00e1nchez, Head of Latin America and the Caribbean, Climate Bonds Initiative:<br>&#8220;Mexico\u2019s leadership in the sustainable finance market is a testament to the collaborative efforts between the public and private sectors. The progress we&#8217;ve seen is impressive, especially considering that between 2019 and 2023, the GSS+ market in Mexico accounted for around 8% of the overall debt issued in the country, which is double the global figure of 4%. This demonstrates the country&#8217;s strong commitment to implementing sustainability strategies that align with international ESG standards.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>###<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Sobre LAGreen<\/strong><br>LAGreen es el primer fondo de bonos verdes dedicado a Am\u00e9rica Latina.
