Key Features of TCBN
Exposure to largest and most liquid carbon credit markets
Access the global carbon credit markets, primarily the European Union’s (EU) Emissions Trading System, the largest and most liquid carbon market in the world and a cornerstone of the EU's policy to combat climate change.
A strategic investment approach
TDAM will conduct a semi-annual review of global carbon emission markets to determine suitability and may expand its exposure to carbon credits that trade on other global Emissions Trading Systems as those markets mature, offering further opportunities for growth.
Opportunity for enhanced portfolio returns
The supply and demand of carbon credits establishes the market price. The supply of carbon credits is set to decrease as jurisdictions commit to the goal of lowering carbon emissions to meet strict pollution standards. In addition, demand for carbon credits is estimated to increase in the future – offering significant growth potential. TCBN also leverages the decades of investment experience of one of the largest asset managers in Canada.
Low-cost
One of the lowest management fees in North America for its asset class.
