In the last decade, numerous national governments have adopted new regulations governing carbon emissions with the objective to change firms’ behavior and reduce the dramatic impact of carbon emissions on global warming. Many studies have examined the impact of climate change regulations on the equity market. Yet, the bond market represents a significant source of firms’ financing. This webinar examines the impact climate regulations on the bond market.
