Article summary

The London Stock Exchange (LSE) has published a market notice launching a consultation on the creation of a Voluntary Carbon Market (VCM) and amendments to the Admission and Disclosure Standards. The VCM designation aims to provide greater transparency to attract capital for Carbon Credit projects. The VCM will be open only to closed-ended investment funds but other asset classes will be considered in the future. The consultation closes on 11 July 2022 and the LSE expects to publish the final rules in September 2022.
