1. ''Environmental policy - carbon footprint - construction - infrastructure.''
The worst yield that an investor could receive on a security, without there being a default by the issuer.


In the context of buildings and other physical infrastructure, residual carbon is the carbon footprint remaining after all feasible methods for reducing carbon impacts have been reasonably exhausted.
The calculation of the Yield to worst assumes 'worst case' outcomes - from the investor's perspective - for example in relation to the exercise of any options in favour of the issuer.
 
A net zero carbon balance can then be achieved by purchasing offsets for the appropriate amount of residual carbon.
 
The amount of offsets purchased should be published.

The calculation of the Yield to worst assumes 'worst case' outcomes - from the investor's perspective - for example in relation to the exercise of any options in favour of the issuer.
