Sagarmala Finance Corporation will issue India's first blue bond to raise 10 billion rupees ($105.08 million) for maritime infrastructure. The state-owned lender follows Bank of China and Seychelles in tapping the $15 billion global blue debt market. The issuance aims to fix an asset-liability mismatch between 3.5-year borrowing and 12-year lending cycles.
