CIX, Carbonplace Plan Carbon Market Infrastructure Merger
Climate Impact X and Carbonplace have agreed to merge, combining carbon credit trading and price discovery with portfolio management, multi-registry access, settlement and custody infrastructure. The transaction remains subject to approval by the Monetary Authority of Singapore. CIX CEO Oi-Yee Choo will lead the combined business, while Carbonplace CEO Scott Eaton will become President. Both companies will retain their existing brands during integration, expected to conclude in the first quarter of 2027. The merger responds to institutional demand for simpler, auditable transactions spanning sourcing, trading, settlement, holding and retirement. It also positions the combined platform for expanding Article 6 activity, CORSIA demand and carbon-market financing. Shareholders will include major global banks, SGX Group, GenZero and other financial institutions and climate investors.
