Qatar is ready to sell its first green bond — and first external deal of any kind in four years — soon, according to the Gulf state’s finance minister.

“We’re ready to do it very soon,” Ali Al-Kuwari told Bloomberg Television at the World Economic Forum in Davos. “We are not hungry for money but it will be mainly to send a strong statement” about the need to counter climate change.
