Investors lack a specialist entry point to this sector – Natural Carbon Capital has been established to bridge this gap

An impact-focused fund

  • Dedicated to investment in nature-based carbon credit projects

  • Focus on the highest quality projects and credits

  • Capital will be invested to generate predicable, long-term flows of credits

  • Providing development capital to projects that otherwise may not be developed

Emerging asset class with strong market and pricing fundamentals

  • Growing demand from corporates and governments to achieve net-zero climate goals – voluntary and compliance markets

  • Short supply of high quality, sustainable credits

Diverse portfolio

  • Multiple project geographies and ecosystems types - forest, grassland, peatland, wetlands, agriculture

  • Investment at different points in project cycle – pre and post credit issuance

Strongly orientated to ESG mandates

  • Strong emphasis on carbon measurement

  • Focus on sustainability co-benefits – biodiversity conservation, social and economic support for rural and indigenous communities

  • All credits to be accredited to the highest quality standards and independently verified

Investment Strategy

  • Flexible investment structures considered including acquiring minority equity at the project level, carbon credit streams/royalties, direct or forward purchases

  • Up to [50]% of initial capital to be used to acquire issued credits or invest in “already issuing” projects

  • Up to [15]% of initial capital available to “enable” early-stage projects (feasibility / pre-validation)

  • Balance of initial capital available to invest in de-risked projects (post-validation)

  • Strong focus on projects with environmental and social co-benefits

NCC aims to connect nature based carbon projects with the broadest possible range of institutional, high-net-worth and retail investors to unlock the potential of the VCM
