Rodolfo Fracassi, Founder and managing Director of MainStreet Partners, highlighted that 

“Recent months have seen Green, Social and Sustainability (GSS) bonds reaching centre-stage, representing a market share of over 20% amongst all European bond issuances. A high degree of transparency on the projects financed by these instruments, and their impact, make GSS Bonds by far the most robust asset for a sustainable fixed income portfolio. In a rapidly evolving, and increasingly complex space, we are best located to provide fund managers easy-to-use and actionable tools to manage and report on their positions. This is something we've been doing since 2010, and we are now delighted to offer through Manaos’ technology one of the most comprehensive arrays of sustainability KPIs on GSS Bonds.”
