State Street is on the register’s watch list: it has published an insight piece on nature-linked bonds, and no nature performance deal names it [TBV].

Right of reply

This page describes State Street only through its published statements and the public records of the deals listed. State Street has not yet been invited to comment. Responses and corrections will be recorded here with their date. On register pages, [MS] marks a claim that rests only on the institution’s own statement or on statements by parties to the same deal.

In the register

The register follows instruments whose terms depend on a verified ecological outcome, the broad family of the performance-based bond. The register index explains its tiers, roles and claim tags. No nature performance deal names State Street in the sources checked, so the register lists it on the watch list for the policies, research or products below.

The piece is titled “EMEA asset owners turn to nature-linked bonds for positive outcomes and returns”; only its landing page was retrieved, so its content and date are unverified [TBV]. State Street quit Climate Action 100+ in February 2024, and its US arm stayed out of the relaunched Net Zero Asset Managers initiative while its EU and UK entities joined [IC]. It remains a defendant in the Texas antitrust case [IC].

What it has said

State Street called the Texas suit “baseless and without merit” [MS].

Provenance

Drafted on 15 October 2026 from the research brief Nature performance bond investors.md, compiled the same day from five research strands: outcome-linked and sustainability-linked bonds, environmental impact bonds, debt-for-nature conversions, insurers and reinsurers, and the largest asset managers with their regulatory context. Claim tags follow the brief, which never upgraded a claim without a source and lowered to [MS] any claim a research note had graded [IC] on the strength of a company’s own release. The headquarters country in based_in comes from general knowledge unless a deal record states it, and is to be confirmed. The brief’s search had limits: fund holdings filings, municipal bond disclosures and the Oxford INDIGO and Brookings impact bond databases were not searched, so a deal missing from this page may exist.
