Speaking during the event, the Head of Corporate and Investment Banking of NBC Tanzania, James Meitaron said that “As a local bank, we are proud to be the first bank in the country to take part as the Lead Transaction Adviser for a transaction of this kind. Today we have witnessed history being written where for the first time in the country, a sub-national entity (Tanga-UWASA) in collaboration with UNCDF has opened new avenues for capital mobilization that is going to be done through green bond issuance”
