A Review of Offset Programs: Trading Systems, Funds, Protocols, Standards and Retailers
The goal of this review is to provide an up-to-date analysis and synthesis of the most influential offset programs and activities, to reflect on lessons learned, and thus to inform participants and designers of current and future offset programs.
SEI will periodically update this review to stay abreast of ongoing developments, and to develop a website portal to make this information more accessible.
This version targets programs that meet one or more of the following criteria:
- a significant volume of credit transactions occurring or anticipated
- an established set of rules or protocols
- path-breaking, novel or otherwise notable initiatives or important lessons learned.
