Insurance is essential for the carbon-credit market to unlock capital, manage risk and build trust. On this week’s episode of the ESG Currents podcast, Natalia Dorfman, CEO and co-founder of Kita, joins Eric Kane, director of ESG research at Bloomberg Intelligence, to discuss how her company provides insurance products that aim to unlock institutional investment for high-integrity carbon removal and natural-capital projects. They discuss some of Kita’s key offerings and dive into how they account for the nuances and challenges of these projects, including duration, value and monitoring. They also explore policy developments in the EU, the ramp-up of Article 6 projects and why Dorfman thinks 2026 is the year insurance will come in to handle the complex challenge of carbon-credit permanence.
