English term or phrase: marginal impact
Es geht um grüne Anleihen:

For sustainable finance to have an impact on areas like energy transition and climate change, we need to make sure that the funds are being directed to the right places. This includes looking at the ***marginal impact*** of green financing. For example, utility companies are natural issuers of green bonds to finance projects such as solar or wind farms, but their costs of funding tend to be quite low already.

zusätzliche Auswirkung


Explanation:
I understand it as additional impact

"Marginal: in economics, the term ‘marginal’ means the same as ‘by adding one more’ or ‘additional’. For example, marginal price is the price of buying one more, marginal labor output is how much an additional worker would produce, marginal propensity to save/spend refers to"
