Non-Delivery Cover

Artio’s Non-Delivery Cover empowers carbon credit buyers, including funds, corporates, and traders, to mitigate the risk of delivery shortfalls. Our comprehensive coverage addresses the primary drivers of under-delivery, offering a single, streamlined solution for your entire portfolio.

Whether you are deploying capital at the feasibility stage or during late-stage maturity, Artio provides the security needed to support your transactions at every step of the project lifecycle.

  • We cover under-delivery from feasibility, if your project fails to deliver the agreed credits in your Policy*.

    Artio’s team has worked in the carbon markets for several years and defined quality when it was needed most. During that time we gained direct insight into why projects under-deliver and matched that with analysis of historical project performance to define our coverage (see below for further detail on risks covered).

    *Subject to terms and conditions defined in Your Policy

  • Our insurance starts covering you from as early as pre-feasibility* all the way to full maturity of your carbon investment.

    Investing earlier means buyers reduce cost per credit and enhance governance. This is why buyers need insurance to work from day one and cover all the relevant risks from day one too.

    *Subject to all relevant documents being prepared

  • We can issue a quote in as little as 2 days*.

    Artio’s industry-leading risk model analyses your project documents, i.e. shapefiles, feasibility studies, financial models, and investment agreements to deliver a fast, reliable premium quote for your forecasted credits. We ensure insurance supports, not delays, your investment decisions.

    *Subject to all requested documents being provided with level of detail required

  • We can settle in the cash value or replacement credits from our credit supplier pool.

    This means you don’t end up with REDD credits as replacement for your ARR project.
