Abstract Text Sustainable investments have grown rapidly in recent years and created new markets for investors. This thesis contributes to a new field of sustainable investments by analysing the sustainability bonds and particularly the World Bank’s Pandemic Emergency Financing Facility. It examines how sustainable investment opportunities can be regarded as a private market solution to support the provisioning of a global public good and analyses whether sustainability bonds mobilise the private market for sustainable development. This question is explored by analysing the maturity and trading size condition on the sustainability bond market. The results suggest a small negative effect on maturity and no difference in trading size.
