Abstract

This chapter traces the emergence of green bonds as a concept and reviews the academic literature dealing with this financial innovation. It clusters the literature into marketeers, reformists, and critics of this nascent instrument and draws out their contributions towards our understanding of green bonds. In a second step, this chapter identifies some of the gaps in the literature that this book seeks to fill.
