AFII's league table, The Box, allows investors to see how their bank counterparties rank according to the fee income they have generated from fossil and green bond syndication.

In this paper, we expand the analysis to the ASEAN and Japan regions for the first time.

The league table provides ESG-minded investors with an opportunity to potentially direct their trading activities away from the banks most actively supporting fossil fuel activity in the Asia Pacific region.
