Capital Markets and Securities (Corporate and Subnational Sustainability Bonds) Regulations 2025
The Capital Markets and Securities Authority of Tanzania has issued regulations mandating corporate and subnational issuers to obtain regulatory approval before offering green, blue, social, or sustainability-linked bonds to the public. The framework establishes distinct eligibility criteria, project categorization, and a mandatory 45-day evaluation process for each bond type while requiring strict tracking of proceeds in licensed custodian accounts. By enforcing transparent reporting, external verification, and clear use-of-proceeds standards, the regulations aim to prevent greenwashing, enhance market liquidity, and expand sustainable financing for environmental and social projects.
