Carbon Credits

If there’s any industry that should be a use case for blockchain and DLT, it’s the carbon credit industry. It’s crucial to know who holds what, and when, to ensure the market operates efficiently and with the utmost integrity. DLT enhances transparency, traceability, and security in carbon credit transactions, reducing fraud and double-counting. We believe insurance is essential for the carbon credit industry to achieve its goals of offsetting global carbon emissions and, in turn, help save the planet.

Insurance in the carbon credit market supports the industry by mitigating risks associated with project underperformance, credit invalidation, and market volatility, providing a safety net for investors and companies committed to carbon offsetting. However, there are inherent risks, including the evolving regulatory landscape of carbon markets, which can introduce compliance challenges.

At Native, we specialise in emerging technology and niche industries often overlooked or misunderstood by traditional insurance brokers. Having worked with some of the largest names in the voluntary carbon credit standard industry, we know the risks to watch for and can help transfer these risks through an insurance contract.

Insurance can provide the peace of mind needed when operating in a burgeoning industry on the cusp of mainstream adoption.
