- Can risk transfer solve the US banking problem?
- Irritation in the corporate bond market

It represents a riposte to accusations of greenwashing but, as always in green finance, we discover there are many shades of grey. Meanwhile, US regional lenders are under further pressure. We look into whether a technique popular in Europe for managing risk could save them.
