FY 2023-24 · 2023-07-01

Summary
As part of the international consortium project "GREENWISE-ESG-focused Green Bond Analysis, Enhanced Prediction and Wise Investment Optimization”, this project will focus on investigating investors' willingness to reward greener bonds. We will process EUR sovereign fixed income, interest rate data to feed & ML model with market risk coefficients that will scale the macro government rates, creating a base-line clustering of green bonds & their pricing in the market, compared with competition -AI generated signals for macroeconomic risk. The results of GREENWISE will be a tool suite for measuring the perceived vs actual “greenness” of Fixed Income assets and predicting how this will affect the pricing of these Fixed Income assets

Description (French)
Dans le cadre du projet de consortium international GREENWISE-ESG (Green Bond Analysis, Enhanced Prediction and Wise Investment Optimization), ce projet se concentrera sur l’étude de la volonté des investisseurs de récompenser les obligations plus vertes. Nous traiterons les données sur les taux d’intérêt des obligations souveraines en euros pour alimenter un modèle LM avec des coefficients de risque de marché qui mettront à l’échelle les taux macro-étatiques, créant un regroupement de base des obligations vertes et leur prix sur le marché, par rapport à la concurrence — les signaux générés par l’IA pour le risque macro-économique. Les résultats de GREENWISE constitueront un ensemble d’outils permettant de mesurer le caractère «vert» perçu ou réel des actifs à revenu fixe et de prédire comment cela affectera la tarification de ces actifs à revenu fixe.
