Carbon offset credit advisory for family offices.
Carbon Credits and offsetting emissions have become a transformative topic for family offices and private owners of legacy assets in agriculture, timber, coal, oil and gas. As over 1,500 global companies commit to reducing their emissions to net zero, the role of carbon offset credits is growing in importance.
According to the International Energy Forum, a carbon offset credit can come from four categories: avoided nature loss including deforestation; nature-based sequestration, such as reforestation; avoidance or reduction of emissions such as methane from landfills; and technology-based removal of carbon dioxide from the atmosphere like carbon capture, utilization, and storage.
Crestmont management has nearly 20 years of experience in identifying and evaluating legacy assets that may generate carbon offset credits - and is working with select family offices to quantify and monetize these potential credits from their legacy assets.
Crestmont engages with family offices as an advisor in exchange for a contingent share of profits created directly from our involvement in helping monetize carbon offset value from legacy assets owned by the family office. Once engaged we charge a modest advisory retainer, which is netted from our profit share, and all expenses associated with creating carbon offset credits are subject to review and pre-approval by the family office. No surprises. Complete visibility.
