Carbon Credits: A Strategic Tool for Corporate Climate Action

Why carbon credits belong in corporate climate strategy, and how to make the finance count

Most of the finance reaching nature still comes from public budgets, and the climate and nature finance gaps continue to widen. Carbon credits are among the few instruments that move private capital directly into verified mitigation where those gaps are largest, and the main corporate net-zero frameworks now give them a defined role alongside a company's own emissions reductions.

Written by SE Advisory Services and Arden Climate, this edition shows how companies can use carbon credits to channel more of that finance, and what they gain from doing so.

In this report

What carbon credits now count for: How the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) and ISO's draft net-zero standard treat carbon credits before and at the net-zero year, and what a company can be recognized for.
How to get more from an existing portfolio: How to assess the credits a company already holds, and build a portfolio that serves its climate strategy over time.
Why compliance markets matter to corporate buyers: CORSIA, Article 6 and national carbon pricing draw on many of the same crediting programs and projects as the voluntary carbon market, and the two are increasingly converging.
What to establish before buying: The project evidence buyers are now expected to hold, and what a company can say publicly about the credits it funds.
