New WisdomTree ETC on Xetra: first-time access to trading of EU CO2 Emission Allowances

September 2, 2021--Since Thursday, a new exchange traded commodity from the issuer WisdomTree has been tradable via Xetra and Börse Frankfurt.
With WisdomTree Carbon, investors have access to trading in EU emission certificates for the first time.

Emissions trading is an instrument of environmental policy to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. Companies that emit carbon dioxide (CO2) must have so-called emission rights in the form of certificates issued by the EU. If a company wants to emit more carbon dioxide than it has certificates for, it can buy the emission rights from other companies. Emissions trading in Europe was introduced in 2005 as part of the Kyoto climate change agreement.

The WisdomTree Carbon tracks the performance of futures contracts on European Union CO2 Emission Allowances. The futures contracts held in the index are rolled into the next futures contracts over a ten-day period each November.

ESMA sees risk of market corrections in uneven recovery

September 1, 2021--The European Securities and Markets Authority (ESMA), the EU securities markets regulator, today publishes its second Trends, Risks and Vulnerabilities (TRV) Report of 2021 . The Report highlights the continued rise in valuations across asset classes in an environment of economic recovery and low interest rates, the increased risk taking of investors and the materialisation of event risks such as GameStop, Archegos and Greensill.

ESMA continues to see elevated risks and fragile fundamentals, with an outlook for continued high risk and uncertainty over the sustainability of corporate and public debt as well as rising inflation expectations. Current market trends need to show their resilience over an extended period of time to allow for a more positive risk assessment. The extent to which these risks will materialise will critically depend on market expectations on the continuation of monetary and fiscal policy support, as well as on the pace of the economic recovery and on inflation expectations.
