World’s First Sovereign Carbon White Paper

Deutsche Bank-CIO-Special-UNFCCC REDD+ Sovereign Carbon-White Paper-ITMO Ltd

Sovereign Carbon White Paper
In October 2022, Deutsche Bank, the Coalition for Rainforest Nations, and the ITMO team published the first White Paper on Sovereign Carbon.

– We expect rapid growth of voluntary purchases of Paris Agreement compliant carbon credits. This “sovereign carbon” asset will offer major new opportunities to deploy capital to tackle climate change and keep the 1.5° goal alive.

– Sales of national-scale UNFCCC REDD+ credits can help generate financing toreduce and, perhaps, reverse de-forestation. Blue carbon credits could also prove – verdy important.

– Larger-scale, liquid and transparent markets will encourage capital inflows, as will improved understanding of how to use carbon credits in investor portfolios.
