Carbon Trading and the Emerging Carbon Market: What Investors Need to Know

Carbon trading and credit exchange programs create economic incentives that many corporations have begun to take advantage of in recent years.

As increasing carbon emissions fuel the onset of global warming, environmental regulations enforce a new wave of transparency and motivate corporations to mitigate their harm to the environment. By more actively accounting for carbon emissions offsets, companies can offset their existing carbon footprint to meet national and international climate targets through direct investment in low-carbon projects.

It is no surprise the global carbon emissions offset market is predicted to reach a value of $200 billion by 2050, as over 93 million carbon credits were purchased in 2020, a 33% increase from 2019. Savvy investors are profiting from this mechanism as it maintains its status as a top commodity. 

This webinar provides insights on the carbon market and provides an overview of the different platforms for trading carbon credits, overcoming the risk and price volatility, and how industry compliance is evolving. Featured speakers include ClimeCo CEO Bill Flederbach and Kepos Capital Portfolio Manager Will Simmons.
