Sliced: 🎙️ Unpacking a Commodity Futures Contract with Rick Gilmore
We are thrilled to release the newest episode of our podcast, Untangling Climate Finance.
This episode features a conversation between Jay, and Rick Gilmore, the President & CEO of GIC Group.
They primarily focus on GIC Group’s new product, Commodities Plus Carbon (CPC), a novel futures contract that blends agricultural commodities with carbon markets. This approach seeks to reward farmers with a premium on their crop yields, encouraging sustainable farming practices and carbon sequestration. Through their dialogue, Rick sheds light on the CPC’s mechanics, its significance in today’s agricultural and environmental landscape, and the rationale behind its timely introduction. They discusses the integration of carbon sequestration within the product design, highlighting the methods employed for measuring and verifying carbon emissions.
As Rick explains the driving forces behind the CPC and its potential impact, listeners are offered fresh a glimpse into a future where he believes agriculture and environmental stewardship can go hand-in-hand, potentially marking a step forward in the fight against climate change.
