The world's largest financial institutions have shown extraordinary interest in Green Eurobond which is a sign of confidence in the stable financial position of Pakistan and WAPDA as well.

The extraordinary response to Green Euro in the world financial market has opened new avenues for financing of big projects in Pakistan.

Green Euro (Indus Bond) has been issued by WAPDA on the London Stock Exchange this week.

It has been issued on the basis of WAPDA’s stable financial position rather than state guarantee.
