The Market Network
Where the Standards meet real transactions
The Market Network brings project owners, issuers, investors, governments, peace experts and advisers together to put the Standards to work in live transactions.
Who the Network is for
The Network is open to any institution that is interested in developing, financing, advising on or checking peace-aligned investments. Institutional investors and asset managers. Project owners and issuers, including development finance institutions, multilateral development banks, sovereigns, sub-sovereigns and corporates. Banks, structuring and legal advisers. Verifiers and second-opinion providers. Peacebuilding organisations and local partners. Rating agencies, exchanges and researchers.
Why join the Network
Market Network members are part of a growing community of institutions dedicated to bringing capital to where it can do the most good, by building peace measures into investments. Members include investors looking for well-understood opportunities in new markets, project owners and issuers seeking capital, and peace experts and public institutions looking to make their work go further. The Network gives members access to a live pipeline of transactions being prepared against the Standards, direct contact with the people structuring them, exclusive research and case studies, and the latest tools, guidance and market developments in peace finance.
Three ways to stay engaged throughout the year
Network convenings
The Network meets several times a year, including during an annual in-person convening in London, where members hear live transactions presented and help shape what the market needs next, and seminars and workshops focused on specific questions, themes or regions.
Working groups
Small groups formed around a live transaction, where project owners and issuers get direct feedback from the market as they prepare it for issuance and certification. Members advise the project owner or issuer on structure, on the peace measures and on what investors will need to see.
Members area
An online space for members, opening in 2027, with tools, case studies, a pipeline of live transactions that are certified or on the path to certification, and the latest guidance on peace measures, plus a member directory to find and stay in touch with the people you want to work with.
