    Market participants believe 2021 could be the year when social bonds become established as a more thriving and coherent market, after the breakthrough in volume during 2020, when issuance was swelled by the Covid-19 pandemic.
  • Four heavily oversubscribed Latin American new issues fetched tight pricing on Thursday, dispelling the unease felt at the week’s start and putting the region firmly on track to fulfil the predictions of record primary volumes for a January.
  • Colombia tapped international bond markets for the first time since June this week. But it is the country's domestic bond market — which is 25% owned by foreign investors — that could be in for a particularly notable year, with the sovereign set to turn to pesos for its debut green bond in July. It is also laying the ground for a social bond and a government bond ETF.
