A Certified Climate Debt Instrument is a green debt instrument that is certified by the Climate Bonds Standard Board as meeting the requirements of the Climate Bonds Standard.
Because futures contracts are exchange traded they involve standard amounts and standard expiry dates.  


The term “Bond” is used in the Climate Bonds Standard to describe the debt instrument being considered for certification whether it is structured as a bond, a loan or some other form of debt instrument.


 
They also require a refundable up-front security payment (initial margin) and subsequent variation margin adjustments.

Any similar debt instrument, not necessarily certified in this way.
