B3 anticipates entry into force of the carbon market regulation by structuring a registration environment

Discussions about possible regulation of the carbon market brought about by the World Bank's PMR Project gained relevance in Brazil in 2020. As this movement evolved, some proposed bills and public consultations were initiated and B3 has been actively following its developments.

B3’s objective is to actively participate in the construction of this market and to anticipate entry into force of a possible regulation by creating a space to structure an environment for registration, trade and retirement of carbon assets.

The project aims to establish a new market and make a positive impact on the environment

The main goal of the carbon market is to reduce the global environmental footprint. Brazil has the potential to be a key player in this market thanks to its abundance of natural resources.

As a market infrastructure, B3 plays a key role in the development of new products and the optimization of their dynamics.

The PMR Brazil Project aimed to discuss the convenience and opportunity of including the pricing of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions in the package of instruments to implement the National Policy on Climate Change (PNMC) in the post-2020 period.

The PMR Brazil Project is part of the Partnership for Market Readiness (PMR), a World Bank program that provides grants aimed at providing support to prepare and implement climate change mitigation policies – including carbon pricing instruments – in order to scale up GHG mitigation.
