Carbon Investment Advisory

With the Kyoto Protocol established in 1997, the international community decided to halt anthropogenic climate change by defining flexible market-based instruments to reduce the worldwide emission of greenhouse gases. The emission of greenhouse gases has hence gained a market value, which has become increasingly important in production and investment decisions of emission intensive sectors.

The European Emission Trading Scheme (EU ETS) started on January 1, 2005. During the initial trial phase that ended on December 31, 2007 regulated companies could learn how to manage the arising operational and financial consequences before the start of the first “Kyoto-compliant” phase. This regulatory phase, comprising the years 2008 to 2012, imposes even stricter emission reduction goals. The political institutions of the European Union have already started to intensively discuss the post-Kyoto regulatory framework till 2020. In all likelihood, a cap-and-trade emission trading mechanism will remain at the core of the post-Kyoto agreements.

By promptly exploring market opportunities in the various emission trading schemes, First Climate offers innovative investment opportunities with excellent returns. We offer comprehensive advisory services in the field of carbon investment, such as support in investment decisions, the structuring and development of carbon funds or managing regulated entities’ carbon risks.
