During the panel, Bimo Soewadji shared perspectives on how credible carbon markets are built on strong governance, regulatory clarity, and meaningful local community engagement to support long-term, sustainable investment in the APEC region.


As geoeconomic dynamics recalibrate trade and climate finance, Bimo Soewadji emphasized that strong regional connectivity supported by regulatory infrastructure, for example, Indonesia’s Presidential Regulation No. 110/2025. Clear rules create confidence, and confidence attracts capital—moving markets from design to real traction.



CarbonEthics participation at ABAC Meeting I 2026 emphasized that sustainable carbon markets are built on strong safeguards and meaningful community engagement. For nature-based solutions, which are often defined by longer delivery horizons and structural bankability challenges,  social license and regulatory clarity are not optional; they are foundational to long-term risk mitigation. While trusted and interoperable regional frameworks take time to develop, they are essential to sustaining growth and competitiveness across the Indo-Pacific.

J’ai récemment comparé plusieurs clubs de jeu en ligne parce que je cherchais une plateforme facile à utiliser sur ordinateur comme sur téléphone. Mon principal critère n’était pas la quantité d’offres affichées sur la page d’accueil, mais plutôt la qualité de la navigation.
