“Carbon Credits: A New Frontier in Asset Representation”
Carbon credits, which symbolize assets such as forests and renewable energy products, serve as a means for businesses to offset their carbon emissions. The collaboration between Neutral and DLT Finance aims to create a streamlined and regulated platform for trading these credits.
“Neutral’s Role as a Tech Provider and DLT Finance’s Regulatory Expertise”
Farouq Ghandour, the CEO of Neutral, clarified that his company operates as the technology provider in this collaboration, with DLT Finance contributing its regulatory expertise. Unlike existing blockchain-based carbon markets, the newly established exchange prioritizes enhancing the user experience.

Ghandour emphasized the significance of regulatory compliance for financial institutions, highlighting a general reluctance to engage with decentralized exchanges (DEXs). The newly established exchange seeks to address this concern by offering a familiar platform for commodity swaps, ensuring improved liquidity for large-scale trades.
“Streamlining the User Experience in Carbon Credit Trading”
The primary goal of this initiative is to streamline the user experience in carbon credit trading. By combining Neutral’s technological capabilities with DLT Finance’s regulatory framework, the collaboration aims to provide a reliable and regulated platform for users, attracting larger institutional players in the process.
“Blockchain’s Potential to Transform Carbon Credit Markets”
This joint venture underscores the increasing interest in leveraging blockchain technology to enhance the carbon credit market while adhering to regulatory standards. The collaboration between Neutral and DLT Finance has the potential to set a precedent for greater institutional adoption in the space, as the project unfolds and establishes itself in the evolving landscape of carbon credit trading.
