This policy brief outlines seven key components that the CMI considers should be included in this strategy to support an uplifted 2035 Nationally Determined Contribution (NDC) and a more comprehensive approach to the bipartisan 2050 net zero target. We believe an enduring national climate policy framework requires robust consideration of market-based frameworks.
This report is part of an annual series that presents expert carbon market insights from CMI members – decarbonisation analysts, nature specialists, lawyers, financial market specialists, technology specialists, and decarbonisation advisors. Across 9 chapters, explore topics such as the role of banks in supporting compliance under the Safeguard Mechanism and the data revolution in carbon markets.
Through a three-part program, CMI will help businesses meet Australia’s climate-related financial disclosure regime expectations and international frameworks. Expect to cover key inclusions for credible transition plans, how to engage with carbon markets in net zero transition and how to use a transition plan to inform broader company strategy and risk.
