Political Risk insurance

Insurance solutions for those involved in the trading of carbon/greenhouse gas instruments across borders and jurisdictions.

The majority of Emissions Trading Schemes (ETS) are, and will likely continue to be, trans-border.  In addition, Clean Development Mechanisms (CDM) and Joint Implementation (JI) mechanisms under the Kyoto agreement focus entirely on developing economies. Both these drivers mean that there will be an increasing trade in carbon/greenhouse gas instruments across borders.

Given the jurisdictions involved, there will be an increased possibility of government interference with the free flow of such instruments. 

ACE Political Risk can provide interested parties (project sponsors, investors, lenders and buyers of credits) with tailored financial protection from risks arising from governmental interference, embargo, licence cancellation, war and political violence which could interrupt the production, certification and delivery of carbon credits.
