12312The Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) were unanimously adopted at the UN Summit in 2015. In order to realize a world that leaves no one behind, wide-ranging initiatives must be implemented in the fields of economy, society, and the environment at not only the national level, but also the local government level.The Tokyo Metropolitan Government has formulated the Tokyo 2050 Strategy: Unlocking a Better Future and is strategically advancing measures aimed at realizing our vision for Tokyo in the 2050s. Working together with the people and businesses of Tokyo, we will make Tokyo the world’ s best city: a city that leaves no one behind, enables each and every person to shine and feel happy, and achieves a balance between maturity and ongoing growth.The power of finance can help find solutions to social problems. New flows in finance open paths for society to take. In order to significantly accelerate actions for the SDGs, in 2021, the Tokyo Metropolitan Government became the first local government in Japan to issue social bonds. With the backing of investment, we are strongly promoting policies for those in need of social support while also striving to stimulate the sustainable finance market.Meanwhile, amid the rapid global expansion of sustainable finance, concerns about ESG washing are also rising. The quality of sustainability strategy as a whole is in question, making it necessary to secure more transparency, such as confirming the situation of funds procured after bond issuance and better reporting.The Tokyo Metropolitan Government has prepared the Tokyo Social Bond Impact Report to show in an easy-to-understand manner the situation and social impacts of projects that were allocated funds raised through bond issuance, and also provide a total picture of the goals and individual projects.Along with continuing to take concrete actions to find solutions to social problems, we will also engage in developing the sustainable finance market through the issuance of social bonds.I hope this report will serve to deepen your understanding of Tokyo’ s social bonds.Stimulate the sustainable finance market by accelerating the trend of utilizing market funds to find solutions to societal challenges.Realize a bright future Tokyo where people shine and contribute to achieving the SDGs through these efforts.Strongly promoteTMG's policy measuresStrongly promote TMG’ s measures backed by the support provided by companies and investors through their investment in Tokyo Social Bonds.Invest in Tokyo Social BondsStimulate the sustainable finance marketKOIKE YurikoGovernor of TokyoOpen up a bright future for Tokyowhere people can shineAchieve the SDGsSocial BondsImpact ReportThe Future that Tokyo Social Bonds aim to realize(From the Tokyo Social Bonds Series 7 and 8 Framework)
