Scope of the mandate.
- Market entry & monetization strategy — how your asset or obligation converts to value, in which market, on what timeline.
- Deal structuring & term sheet support — commercial structure, pricing logic, risk allocation, and negotiation levers — with legal and tax review flagged where it belongs.
- Portfolio & compliance planning — obligation curves, banking strategy, and forward exposure treated as trading questions, not reporting questions.
- Policy-to-commercial translation — what a regulatory change actually does to your price, your counterparties, and your next move.
- Transaction support — a desk's judgment inside your process — diligence, pricing opinions, and counterparty assessment.
Teams that need a desk's judgment without building one.
Boards weighing market entry, compliance teams carrying trading questions, developers structuring their first monetization, and funds assessing carbon exposure. Retained or project-based.
Four steps. No mystery.
Working session
Thirty minutes. You bring the position; you leave with a market read either way.
Mandate & structure
Scope, economics, and the hat we're wearing — agency or advisory — agreed in writing before any work begins. An NDA is in place from the outset.
Market execution
We originate, negotiate, and price with our name facing the market. Yours stays out of it.
Confirmation & settlement
You contract directly with your chosen counterparty; we support through registry and settlement.
Through price discovery and negotiation, the market sees Carbon Merchant — not you. Your name is disclosed only at confirmation, to the one counterparty you've chosen to contract with. Everyone you didn't trade with never learns you were in the market.
We engage where commercial outcomes are decided — post-FID, at validation, at issuance, and post-issuance — and we execute quietly. No client is named, referenced, or implied in our marketing, our conversations, or our content. Ever.Bring the question. We'll bring the judgment.
Every conversation is confidential from the first message — before any agreement is signed.
