Stronger ecosystems that bolster investor confidence have become essential to global carbon markets' growth. "Carbon markets can only scale at the speed of trust," says Oi-Yee Choo, CEO of Singapore-based Climate Impact X (CIX), tells Conrad Tan, Bloomberg Intelligence ESG integration analyst. Choo explains what's needed to build this trust, why the gap between compliance and voluntary carbon markets is narrowing, and how countries' focus on their own needs risks fragmenting markets further. They also discuss how Asia's mix of suppliers and buyers of carbon credits could support deeper, more liquid carbon markets that support the decarbonization ambitions of governments and companies worldwide.
