Austria plans to issue its first-ever green bond next year, joining the flock of nations looking to issue debt tailored for investors with an environmentally conscious mandate.
The euro-area member state will hold an initial sale in the first three months of 2022, though it has yet to decide on technical details including volume and maturity, Finance Minister Gernot Bluemel said in an interview in Alpbach, Austria.
