Summary

Episode 70 explores a fresh corner of climate finance: carbon removal bonds. Unlike traditional green bonds that fund low-carbon projects, these bonds tie coupon payments to verifiable tons of CO2 removed. Lucas and Luna break down the mechanics using the example of a hypothetical $200 million bond from a direct air capture company targeting 500,000 tons of removal over ten years. They discuss how the structure aligns investor returns with climate outcomes, the role of third-party auditors, and why this could unlock a new asset class for institutional investors. The episode also touches on the risks, including verification lag and project failure. If you've been following carbon markets, this is the next evolution—fixed income with a tonnage kicker. #CarbonRemoval #GreenBonds #ClimateFinance #FixedIncome #DirectAirCapture #CarbonMarkets #SustainableInvesting #CarbonCredits #ESG #NetZero #ClimateTech #CarbonRemovalBonds #InstitutionalInvestors #CarbonAccounting #Economics #GreenFinance #FexingoBusiness #BusinessPodcast Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
