Climate Change & Emissions Trading
The next few years promise to be important years for sustainability initiatives and the increased prominence of climate change related issues in financing and risk disclosure for both public and private companies. BAX is uniquely positioned to assist small and mid-cap issuers, funds, institutional investors and investment professionals who are:
• raising capital in the Canadian markets either publicly or privately to adequately reflect climate change risks and opportunities in their offering documents,
• trading carbon credits/ carbon-based derivatives for investment or compliance purposes with advice on Canadian dealer, portfolio manager, investment fund manager, and exempt market dealer registration requirements as well as commodities, derivatives and marketplace rules respecting carbon products.

Barbara, whose experience in this area spans nearly twenty years has in depth understanding of emissions trading transactions and systems, offset projects, corporate governance and public & private company disclosure of risks related to climate change.
