KINGSTON, Jamaica — Prime Minister Andrew Holness is to make a statement in the House of Representatives today, providing an update on climate change issues and his visit to South Korea.
Last week, Jamaica was given the green light to list the first ever Caribbean Green Bond on the Republic of Korea's stock market.
According to Holness, the Green Climate Fund approved the listing which will place Jamaica as the Caribbean country of choice to conduct climate smart and sustainable business. He also announced that Jamaica has joined the Finance Ministers Coalition for Climate Action to ensure continued efforts to climate proof the economy.
He made the announcements last week Monday, while delivering the keynote address at the Green Climate Fund Private Investment for Climate Conference (GPIC) in Korea.
