About us

BIVCM_BG-2.jpg


Our initiative has 5 workstreams focused on different parts of the carbon credits value chain

The Brazilian Initiative for the Voluntary Carbon Market is the result of a combination of companies and institutions from several sectors in Brazil – Amaggi, Auren, B3, Bayer, CBA, Dow, Natura, Rabobank, Raízen, Reservas Votorantim, Vale, Votorantim and Votorantim Cimentos – with the goal of structuring key actions to develop the voluntary carbon market in Brazil and contribute to the global high-integrity carbon market. McKinsey & Company is the knowledge partner for the initiative

The initiative works on several fronts to position the country as the leader of a high-integrity global carbon market. Project objectives include broadening the offering through improved certification/verification processes, develop the financial instruments required to align demand and supply, define requirements for a high integrity market (technical, environmental and social), explore the main tax implications, design an independent governance body to coordinate the market and design the engagement strategy with the key stakeholders.

Supply

​Enable ​supply through better certification / verification processes and support the regulatory discussions

Demand

Streamline the due diligence process and address key
tax implications

Wholesale

​Improve financing for voluntary carbon market projects by designing financing mechanisms with risk mitigators, and provide more fungibility and liquidity to the market by proposing standard contracts that reflect the Brazilian context

Governance

Design of an independent governance body to coordinate the market, ensuring the integrity of the organization and impartial decision-making by its members

​Stakeholder Engagement

​Outline the engagement strategy with key stakeholders to define communication and to assure the correct media visibility of the Initiative
