Background of the Study

Green financing refers to investments and financial instruments aimed at funding projects that have positive environmental benefits. In Nigeria, the adoption of green financing has become a critical element in the country’s efforts to address environmental sustainability and climate change. The Nigerian Green Bond Market, which was established in 2017, aims to channel funds towards environmentally friendly projects such as renewable energy, sustainable agriculture, and climate-resilient infrastructure (Adewale & Oluwaseun, 2023).

Despite growing interest in green finance, challenges such as limited awareness, inadequate regulatory frameworks, and access to capital have hindered the full potential of green financing in Nigeria. This study analyzes the performance of the Nigerian Green Bond Market, evaluating the challenges and opportunities in financing environmentally sustainable projects.

Statement of the Problem

Green financing in Nigeria, although gaining traction, faces several challenges including a lack of investor confidence, regulatory barriers, and insufficient market development. The Nigerian Green Bond Market, while promising, has yet to achieve its full potential in mobilizing funds for environmentally sustainable projects (Oluwaseun, 2024).

This study examines the performance of the Nigerian Green Bond Market, identifying key barriers to growth and proposing strategies to enhance the effectiveness of green financing in the country.

Objectives of the Study

  1. To evaluate the performance of the Nigerian Green Bond Market in financing environmental projects.
  2. To assess the challenges and barriers limiting the growth of green financing in Nigeria.
  3. To recommend strategies to enhance the effectiveness of the Nigerian Green Bond Market in promoting sustainable development.

Research Questions

  1. How effective has the Nigerian Green Bond Market been in financing environmental projects?
  2. What challenges are hindering the growth of green financing in Nigeria?
  3. What strategies can improve the effectiveness of green financing in Nigeria?

Research Hypotheses

  1. The Nigerian Green Bond Market has made a significant contribution to financing environmental projects.
  2. Regulatory and market-related challenges limit the growth of green financing in Nigeria.
  3. Strategic improvements in the Green Bond Market can enhance the effectiveness of green financing in Nigeria.

Scope and Limitations of the Study

The study focuses on the Nigerian Green Bond Market and its impact on financing environmental projects between 2023 and 2025. Limitations include the availability of detailed financial data and the evolving regulatory framework governing green finance.
