On June 2, 2022, the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (“CFTC”) convened for the first time market participants to discuss the state and the challenges of the U.S. voluntary carbon credit (“VCC”) markets and, at the end of the meeting, published a Request for Information (“RFI”) on Climate-Related Financial Risk. This convening was an important step in CFTC’s broader initiative to conceptualize its jurisdictional reach over environmental, social and governance (“ESG”) commodity markets generally. https://www.cadwalader.com/resources/articles/cftc-considers-greater-regulation-of-carbon-offset-markets
