The Philippine Star
|January 31, 2025
The global economy is in constant flux, and 2025 promises to be no exception. Businesses that fail to adapt to emerging trends risk being left behind.
This year, understanding key shifts in the financial landscape is not just beneficial—it's crucial for survival and growth. From the burgeoning green bond market to the transformative power of digitalization, we'll explore the business trends that will define 2025.

Green bonds have been growing in recent years. These bonds are exclusively used to finance environmental projects. Recent global environmental initiatives, such as the United Nations' Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), have influenced the growth of the global green bond market.
S&P Global reported that green bond market issuances reached $575 billion in 2023, with a large share coming from Europe.
