Markit Environmental Registry
As the global trend in managing environmental assets moves towards price based mechanisms, a robust global registry is an essential tool in order to provide the required transparency and credibility.
Product summary:
Ensuring simplicity of trade for both OTC and exchange based trading, the Registry is the only registry to enable accountholders to manage all their environmental credits – carbon, water and biodiversity - in one global centralised financial-markets based registry system with maximum security and flexibility.
Key benefits:
Documentation and holdings can be publicly viewable, increasing transparency and confidence and helping to attract buyers from around the world
All project and listing documentation is reviewed to ensure compliance with the relevant environmental market standard
Credits receive a unique serial number so they may be monitored and tracked through their life-cycle on the Registry
Credits can be retired with full transparency, ensuring the same credits are not sold or transferred at a later date
