The Role of Carbon Credits in Achieving Net Zero by 2050


Carbon credits are emerging as a critical tool in the global drive toward net zero. As countries and companies scale up climate ambition, international cooperation under Article 6 of the Paris Agreement is laying the groundwork for high-integrity cross-border crediting. In parallel, corporate demand is driving innovation in deal structures, from ERPAs and prepayment models to risk allocation mechanisms.

This panel will examine how carbon credits can meaningfully support decarbonization efforts while attracting the financing needed to scale. Speakers will explore project funding through carbon funds and blended finance, and the growing role of insurance and credit enhancement products in de-risking carbon transactions. Join market leaders and climate finance experts to unpack the frameworks and financial instruments shaping the future of carbon markets.


 Panellists to be confirmed soon.
