Issuance of sustainability-linked bonds is set to resume next week, after a year’s hiatus since the product was introduced by Enel, the Italian power and gas company. Many possible deals have fallen by the wayside, as market participants have realised the structure is more difficult to use than they had thought. But Suzano, the Brazilian paper company, will roadshow an issue on Tuesday and Wednesday and other transactions are expected in the coming months.
