The Qatar Financial Centre (QFC) is developing a tokenised carbon market ecosystem to enable seamless cross-border trading and verification of carbon credits using distributed ledger technology (DLT).
The initiative is part of the first wave of the QFC Digital Assets Lab, powered by the Qatar Central Bank, and aims to test the functionality and impact of this innovation within a controlled lab environment. By creating a unified digital infrastructure, including a disclosure portal, registry, and marketplace, QFC seeks to set new standards for carbon credit quality and transparency.
The platform will play a pivotal role in accelerating sustainable finance, facilitating ESG data flows, and supporting global efforts to link fragmented carbon markets.
