Triodos invests in sovereign bonds from EU member states and the UK. We only select only those countries that have no involvement in international sanctions, and that have signed and ratified international conventions on controversial weapons, human rights, labour rights, and the environment. This includes the International Labour Organization (ILO) conventions (e.g. on child labour, and forced labour), the international convention on civil and political rights, the biological and chemical weapon conventions, the non-proliferation of nuclear weapons treaty, the Paris Climate Agreement, and the convention on biological diversity, amongst others.
Investment rationale
Germany is highly committed to achieving its climate goal of carbon neutrality by 2050. It has emission goals for sectors including transport, energy, industry, agriculture, and waste management. The federal green securities will be used to finance projects that contribute to achieving such climate goals. Building more environmentally friendly and energy-efficient public transportation, promoting use of bicycles and speeding up E-mobility technology are all important subjects to reach Germany's climate goals. In the allocation of the sustainability bond proceeds, transportation counts for the biggest category, followed by international cooperation, renewable energy, research and innovation, and sustainable agriculture.
