Oman’s Financial Services Authority has launched a public awareness campaign on green and sustainable funding instruments, focusing on green bonds and green or sustainable Sukuk. The campaign is framed as a financial literacy initiative intended to encourage investment in environmentally friendly projects and support Oman’s 2050 net-zero objective. The materials explain how conventional bonds and Sukuk differ from their green counterparts and highlight how these instruments can be used to finance renewable energy, sustainable transport and social development initiatives. The campaign also references relevant regulatory requirements, including environmental disclosure requirements under the Regulation for Bonds and Sukuk, and introduces initiatives such as Waqf Sukuk aimed at funding social projects. Outreach will be delivered through social media and visual content to reach a broad audience.
