Carbon Markets and the Green Transition

Starting from many years in a pure global macro environment, in 2025, Strata's predecessor company, C. Macdonald (Europe) began the transition towards a Climate Investing Resource Centre. With exponential increases in compliance emissions trading volumes but also a rapid evolution in voluntary market credibility, the ETS investor landscape has become a real and compelling portfolio component for climate aware investors seeking both opportunity as well as diversification.

Today, with increasing geopolitical conflict and energy market uncertainty, the urgency for renewables and the financing to support their growth has moved into a higher gear.

· Strata Transitions helps position firms and portfolio managers for the coming decade in capital markets which will increasingly direct investor flows toward low-carbon assets and climate-aware technologies. Equally, as pools of expertise emerge investors and fund managers will seek out the winners, both current and future in money management performance.

· Operationally, satisfying a growing demand for investor platforms which enable better risk assessment, valuation, execution and regulatory adherence.

· Assisting firms transitioning from ad hoc compliance to emissions becoming a tangible financial variable in corporate strategy and investment decisions.

· Regulatory scope and adherence shifts investor characteristics away from voluntary/ethical based investing and into a category of competitive firm interaction and risk based on real financial incentive and risk management.
