Report Industry Investment Rating The provided content does not mention the report industry investment rating. Core Viewpoints - Green bonds are securities raised for green industries, projects, or economic activities, and have become an important financing tool. As of the end of 2025, the cumulative issuance scale in China reached 5.32 trillion yuan [2]. - The development of China's green bond market can be divided into three stages: the exploration and launch stage (2015), the standardization development stage (2016 - 2020), and the system improvement stage (2021 - present) [2][16]. - By the end of 2025, the annual issuance scale increased from 207.231 billion yuan in 2016 to 1.079283 trillion yuan, and the number of issuances rose from 89 to 834. The stock of green bonds was 2,014, with a market size of 2.464521 trillion yuan. Green bonds are suitable for long - term investment [3][109]. - Green bonds generally have a "green spread" over non - green bonds, which has weakened in the past three years but still supports pricing. They are more suitable as a stable portfolio base rather than a source of significant excess returns [4]. Summary by Directory 1. Green Bond Development 1.1 Green Bond Concept - Green bonds are securities that raise funds for green industries, projects, or economic activities. They are divided into four types according to the "China Green Bond Principles (2022)" and play an important role in global green finance [13]. 1.2 Policy Context - China's green bond market has established a relatively complete system. The development is divided into three stages: - Exploration and launch stage (2015): The People's Bank of China and the National Development and Reform Commission issued relevant documents, marking the official start of the green bond market [16][17]. - Standardization development stage (2016 - 2020): Multiple departments issued a series of policies to improve the regulatory mechanism, project catalog, and evaluation and certification mechanism [16][18]. - System improvement stage (2021 - present): Policies continued to be refined, the standard system was integrated with international standards, and cross - border green financing advanced steadily [16][25]. 2. Green Bond Value 2.1 Value to Issuers - Green bonds generally have a lower issuance interest rate than non - green bonds, showing a "green spread," which has weakened in the past three years. They can also access overseas ESG funds [34]. 2.2 Value to Investors - Green bonds are fixed - income tools. Their credit risk is mainly determined by the issuer's quality and credit enhancement. They are suitable as a stable portfolio base and can meet institutional ESG and sustainable investment goals. Their tradability has also improved [46]. 3. Green Bond Issuance Statistics 3.1 Green Asset - Backed Securities - Their issuance rhythm has different stages. From 2016 - 2018, it was in the start - up phase; 2019 - 2020 saw market expansion; 2021 entered the accelerated development stage; 2022 - 2023 maintained a high - level operation; 2024 - 2025 had a decline in scale.

It expanded steadily from 2016 - 2020, jumped significantly in 2021, reached a high in 2022, declined in 2023, and significantly increased in 2025. State - owned enterprises are the main issuers, and bank - to - bank market is the main trading platform. Their issuance interest rate has been declining, and the term is mainly medium - short term [59][61][71]. 4. Green Bond Stock and Transaction Analysis 4.1 Green Bond Stock Analysis - As of the end of 2025, the stock of green bonds was 2,014, with a market size of 2.464521 trillion yuan. Financial bonds accounted for nearly half of the stock, followed by medium - term notes and asset - backed securities. The stock was concentrated in short - and medium - term bonds, a few industries, and regions such as Beijing, Shanghai, and Guangdong [83][90][95]. 4.2 Green Bond Transaction Analysis - The secondary - market trading volume of green bonds has been rising with fluctuations, and the turnover rate has shown a trend of "falling from a high level, fluctuating in the central range, and weakening again in recent years." Compared with credit bonds and financial bonds, the turnover rate of green bonds is relatively low, but it has stable trading and periodic surges. The valuation of green bonds shows a clear stratification [100][101][105]. 5. Investment Viewpoint - Similar to the core viewpoints, green bonds have good development prospects, supply - side expansion, and are suitable for long - term investment and portfolio optimization [108][109][110].
