In a Wall Street Journal Private Equity Pro article, Michael Littenberg, partner and global head of the firm’s ESG, CSR and business and human rights practice, discussed how new Securities and Exchange Commission rules to disclose greenhouse gas emissions may bring more transparency to the carbon-credit market.

Michael explains that the new SEC climate disclosure rules will place additional scrutiny around the use of carbon offsets by individual companies where those offsets fit into their carbon-reduction strategy. “More transparency around the carbon-offset market will drive demand for quality offsets,” said Michael.
