Join Anthesis experts for a dynamic and forward-looking webinar exploring how private equity firms can strategically engage with the Voluntary Carbon Market (VCM).

Building on the foundational iCI Private Equity VCM Guidance, this session will unpack the evolving landscape of carbon credit procurement, investment opportunities, and nature-based solutions.

What to expect

  • Interpreting the VCM landscape for Private Equity: Gain clarity on the foundational principles of the iCI Private Equity Voluntary Carbon Market Guidance, co-developed by Initiative Climat International (iCI) and Anthesis, to help private market participants align with net zero ambitions.
  • Building a carbon credit strategy: Explore a structured, seven-step approach to carbon credit procurement, offering a practical framework for engaging responsibly and effectively with the Voluntary Carbon Market.
  • Carbon as an investment opportunity: Understand how carbon projects can be integrated into private equity strategies, enabling firms to deliver both financial returns and measurable climate impact.
  • Nature-based solutions on the horizon: Dive into emerging themes and future directions in nature-based initiatives, and their potential to shape long-term sustainability and climate resilience in private markets.
  • Exploring the role of Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF): Understand how SAF is emerging as a critical climate solution, and how private equity firms can support its development through investment, partnerships, and carbon credit strategies. Learn how SAF fits into broader decarbonisation efforts and complements nature-based and technological approaches within the Voluntary Carbon Market.
