Sustainability - sustainable finance - pricing - social bonds.

Socium is a compound of "social premium".


In this context, socium means the saving an issuer can enjoy on its cost of borrowing, because it is issuing a social bond - or other social instrument - rather than a conventional instrument.

The socium is the amount by which the yield on the social instrument is lower, compared with the conventional instrument.
