In this episode of The Impact, Jeff Gitterman had the pleasure of speaking with Luke Oliver, the Head of Strategy for KraneShares. The pair delved into the fascinating world of carbon markets and the energy transition.
The pair explored the distinction between voluntary and compliance carbon markets, with Luke clarifying that while the voluntary market is small and less regulated, the compliance market is a robust asset class backed by government regulations. He explained how emission trading systems serve as powerful tools for driving innovation and reducing carbon emissions, creating a financial incentive for companies to switch to cleaner energy sources.
