Green Bonds & Sustainable Finance: Use of Proceeds, Greenium & Impact Metrics

Price a green bond against its conventional twin, measure the greenium in basis points, track use of proceeds, attribute impact per USD million, model a sustainability-linked coupon step-up, compute WACI and an illustrative alignment score, and chart a bank's green lending, every cell checked live. Fictional issuers, educational only, not investment advice.

What you'll build

What you will be able to do

Each lab ends with a concrete result that you build yourself and the checker confirms, cell by cell.

  • Lay out the cash flows of a 5-year green bond, price its conventional twin row by row, price the green bond with PV and measure the price premium per bond.
  • Measure the greenium of six green bonds in basis points, average it two ways and turn it into a yearly coupon saving for a new issue.
  • Total the allocation register of a USD 500m green bond, find the unallocated balance and report the share going to renewable energy and to refinancing.
  • Attribute each project's impact to the bond by its financing share and report tCO2e avoided and MWh generated per USD million allocated.
  • Set the KPI target of a sustainability-linked bond, test it against the projection, build the coupon path if the target is missed and the probability-weighted expected coupon.
  • Weight seven holdings, calculate each issuer's carbon intensity and combine them into the weighted average carbon intensity (WACI), then find the largest contributor.
  • Turn each issuer's 2030 target into a compound annual reduction rate, map it to an illustrative temperature score with an approximate lookup and weight the scores into a portfolio number.
  • Split a bank's loan book into green and other loans, track the green share and its growth rate, and show the mix in a stacked column chart.

About this course

Sustainable debt comes with its own metrics, and this course lets you calculate each one. You price a green bond and its conventional twin and measure the greenium in basis points, simple and size-weighted. Use-of-proceeds reports are analysed for allocated and unallocated amounts by category, and impact reporting is expressed as CO2e avoided and MWh per million invested. A sustainability-linked bond is tested against its KPI to find the coupon step-up and expected coupon. You then compute the weighted average carbon intensity of a bond portfolio, an illustrative temperature-style alignment score, and the growth of the green share in a bank's lending book. For sustainable finance analysts, ESG teams, bankers and finance students.

No. You pay $9.99 once for this course. There is no subscription and nothing renews automatically. Prices are in US dollars; taxes may be added where required.
