INTRODUCTION The Ukrainian mortgage market volume is developing rapidly, and is expected to continue to do so in the future. As the market grows, the market structure is deemed to change dramatically as well. A large number of UNIA's members have expressed the need to acquire fairly detailed knowledge of other countries' market structures for residential mortgages, not for replication but to get inspiration and ideas for further development of the Ukrainian mortgage structure. The Project has tried to accommodate the requirements by publishing this handbook. Although mortgage structures in various countries have several common denominators, they are on the other hand also often very different due to various reasons, such as due to different historical and socioeconomic background, size of the market, housing market dynamics, and the macroeconomic stage and development, just to mention some of them. Ten different countries have been chosen for description to present a catalogue for inspiration. These countries have been carefully selected in order to provide as many useful nuances as possible, for instance neighbouring, developing countries close to Ukraine have been selected as well as those of western European countries and the USA. It is our hope that the handbook will facilitate the needs. Edition completed July 2006.

HISTORICAL OVERVIEW As a part of the Austrian-Hungarian empire until 1918, the Bohemian banking sector developed the same classes of financial institutions. A dual banking system of savings banks and commercial banks emerged. The roots of the largest savings bank, Ceska Sporitelna, reach back to 1825, when a predecessor began operating. Savings banks were the depositaries for low-income households and did initially mostly short-term lending. After the 1848 uprisings with ethnic backgrounds, German and Czech financial institutions began to be set up and operated separately. National commercial banks operating in Czech language emerged from this process in the 1860s – the predecessors of today's commercial banks. Remarkably, Bohemia had already in the 19th century a well-developed secondary mortgage market. The first national mortgage bank (Landeshypothekenanstalt) specialized on issuing covered bonds against mortgage loans was created in 1865, a year before the first such bank in Germany. Other mortgage specialists followed in the coming three decades. Identically chartered – in different languages – were the two, German and Czech, apex institutions of the savings bank system founded in 1901 and 1903. The savings banks were allowed to transfer their mortgage loans by way of cession to these institutions, which in turn funded them through issuing covered bonds. The creation of a special bank was not mandatory for covered bond issuance. For instance, the Moravian Pfandbriefanstalt of 1891 started as a department of the Erste Mahrische Sparkasse, a savings bank. Austria-Hungary also did not follow Germany's move in 1900 to impose the special bank principle on new covered

  • A Work Project Presented As Part of the Requirements for the Award of a Master’S Degree in Economics from the NOVA School of Business and Economics
    A Work Project presented as part of the requirements for the Award of a Master’s Degree in Economics from the NOVA School of Business and Economics WHAT DRIVES THE ISSUANCE OF GREEN BONDS – WHAT COUNTRY CHARACTERISTICS HAVE AN EFFECT ON THE ISSUANCE OF GREEN BONDS? Julia Maria Menge Rodrigues A Project carried out on the Master’s in Economics Program, under the supervision of: Maria Antonieta Cunha e Sá and João Pedro Pereira Lisbon, Portugal January 2019 WHAT DRIVES THE ISSUANCE OF GREEN BONDS – WHAT COUNTRY CHARACTERISTICS HAVE AN EFFECT ON THE ISSUANCE OF GREEN BONDS? Abstract We perform a two-step analysis to (i) understand what country characteristics influence the probability that green bonds have been issued in it, and (ii) evaluate what country characteristics affect the volume of green bonds issued in it. By running a logistic regression with 119 countries, we find evidence that the level of development, environmental preferences, transparency and quality of the financial markets, and absence of corruption have a positive effect on the probability of green bonds having been issued in a country. Furthermore, our results suggest that conditional on issuance, environmental preferences also have a positive effect on the volume issued in a country. Keywords: Climate Finance, Environmental Preferences, Green Bonds, Green Finance 1. Introduction The transition to a low-carbon, cleaner and more sustainable economy has already begun. While governments are increasingly taking policy actions and investing in those aspects, businesses are incorporating sustainability into their strategies, and the population is becoming more aware and progressively engaging with this cause.
