The US subsidiary of the 3C Group will be managed by Bjoern D. Fischer, former professional with The Climate Trust, and aims to become "a leading player in the North American voluntary and forthcoming compliance carbon markets." 3C sources carbon credits for offsetting from projects worldwide and provides trading and risk management services.

“We see a huge demand for high quality carbon credits, since companies need transparency for their carbon offset strategies and want to make sure, that their money is well invested in high quality projects and climate protection is really achieved," Sascha Lafeld, board member of 3C Group, commented on the strategic move.
