Emissions Trading
Central Markets is one of the uk's fastest-growing participants in emissions spot trading within the voluntary carbon credit market.
Central Markets (a division of Central Markets London Limited) offers you the opportunity to participate in the new and exciting carbon credit markets and in doing so, you will also be playing a part in safeguarding the environment for future generations.
Working with a global network of partner organisations, we hope to become an industry leader in sourcing and trading voluntary carbon credits to help companies / individuals facilitate purchasing, holding, selling credits or offset their CO2 emissions and mitigate the harmful effects of climate change.
How can you profit?
The difference between the buy and sell price (also known as the spread) of OTC credits bought from a company which either gets them from an exchange or direct from a project can generate private investors profit, whilst also ensuring that the investors money is going into emissions reducing projects worldwide.
What are carbon credits?
The opportunity to trade carbon credits was created by the United Nations’ Kyoto Protocol.
