Our Approach

Carbon insurance is what we do.

In fact, it’s all we do.

This singlemindedness has enabled us to build a company that offers tailored insurance products and services to parties across the carbon markets.

Ambitious? Yes. But also streamlined and focused.

By keeping our brief laser-focused, we can offer insurance policies that are rooted in research, constantly re-calibrated as we acquire new data and based on the expertise that we and our partners pride ourselves on.

As the carbon markets evolve, we help reduce the risks, generating more confidence, enabling capital efficiencies and encouraging more investment in high-quality carbon projects.

If you are interested in a carbon insurance policy from a team that knows what it’s talking about, drop us a line.

Across 24 hours, we’re passing the microphone to experts and practitioners around the world so that businesses across all major time zones can learn what Natural Climate Solutions are, how they address the climate and nature crises and contribute to social development, and how to select credits from projects that make a real difference.

The first session will take place on 22 May at 11.40am. The second session will take place on 23 May at 1.30pm. This forms part of a series of intimate discussion around crucial challenges relating to CDR development.

13 June 2024: CarbonFuture Carbon Removal Summit

The Carbon Removal Summit is an exclusive half-day event focused on the critical role of carbon removal in corporate sustainability strategies.

Panel discussions and keynotes will feature industry leaders in the carbon removal space sharing recent advancements in carbon removal and strategies for incorporating carbon removal into corporate sustainability commitments.

Kita CEO and co-founder, Natalia Dorfman will be speaking on a panel entitled: “Investing in CDR with Confidence: The Key Role of Digital Trust Infrastructure”. The discussion will explore how businesses can use this infrastructure to navigate the carbon market with confidence, turning sustainability commitments into measurable and impactful outcomes. 

18 June 2024: GreenFin24, NY, USA

We will be at GreenFin 24, the premier sustainable finance and investing event. The climate crisis is upending the finance sector. ESG frameworks and best practices continue to evolve, with industry consolidation and regulatory developments bringing clarity and standardisation. Despite their imperfections, they are impacting billions of dollars in investments and leading companies to develop new metrics to gauge their sustainability progress. Yet, those sums are dwarfed by trillions in climate finance needed to transition the global economy to one that is both decarbonised and just. 

Natalia Dorfman and James Kench will be at the event and Natalia will be speaking as part of the Carbon Project Finance Forum, an invitation-only program taking place alongside the general conference.

McKinsey Sustainability

Risk protection? Capital efficiency? Reputational concerns? Insurance can help.

Who are we?

We are committed, climate-conscious folks who came together to bring about real, measurable improvements for the environment - at scale and at pace. We knew there was a missing link in the carbon markets: not enough risk mitigation. Companies had to rely on self-insurance; handling all the risk themselves. Third party insurance - what we do - enables risk transfer.

That means more confidence, more investment and, ultimately, more high-quality carbon solutions taking CO2 out of the atmosphere.

Want to know more? 

We offer carbon insurance products and services covering a range of risks, with customisation that takes into account the factors that are unique to each client. We pride ourselves on working closely with you to understand your needs, and undertaking extensive due diligence so that our insurance products act as an additional stamp of confidence on your carbon credit transactions.
