Climate Asset Management was formed in 2020 as a joint venture of HSBC Asset Management and Pollination, with the ambition to grow the world’s largest asset management company dedicated to natural capital.
At Carbon Streaming, it aims to accelerate a net-zero future. It pioneered the use of streaming transactions, a proven and flexible funding model, to scale high-integrity carbon credit projects to advance global climate action and additional United Nations Sustainable Development Goals. This approach aligns the strategic interests with those of project partners to create long-term relationships built on a shared commitment to sustainability and accountability and positions it as a trusted source for buyers seeking high-quality carbon credits.
Founded in 2020 to manage investments focused on the verified/voluntary carbon market, Melbourne-based Carbon Growth Partners says its aim is to deliver three key outcomes through investing: to generate financial returns, protect and restore nature, and accelerate climate action.
