Abstract

Green bonds are a novel way to help unlock finance for investment in sustainable development. Some issuers and investors are watching this market with keen interest to see whether a green premium-or "greenium"-arises. The current consensus in the literature is that there is a detectable greenium in the secondary markets for corporate and US municipal bonds, but evidence for a greenium at issue is more difficult to detect. The authors provide a summary of the pricing literature and a description of their green municipal bond pricing analyses and then unpack these findings and offer an explanation as to why there is a difference in greenium behavior in the primary and secondary markets.
