Partnership Approach to International Markets - Aude Rajonson, LSEG

Author: Canadian Indigenous Investment Forum November 27, 2025 Duration: 22:21

How do indigenous communities actually access Europe's £400 billion sustainable bond market? Part 2 provides the implementation roadmap.

Aude Rajonson from London Stock Exchange Group explains the preliminary steps debut issuers must take: creating sustainable bond frameworks with trusted advisers, identifying community priorities that align with ICMA principles, and engaging European impact investors who control 90% of global sustainable bond fund assets.

The flexibility is remarkable. Investment grade and high yield both qualify. Canadian dollars are accepted. Tenors are agnostic. The requirement is adequate disclosure in your prospectus for the investor base you're targeting.

Europe sits at the forefront of sustainable finance with sophisticated appetite for social and environmental outcomes. For indigenous communities addressing infrastructure gaps with measurable impact, this episode provides the step-by-step guidance for accessing concentrated European capital.

Essential listening for indigenous communities exploring international markets and institutional investors evaluating partnership opportunities.
