《艺术资本战略》关闭了一家高级担保信贷设施,以支持巴哈马国家蓝碳投资基金,该基金是2022年设立的主权工具。 ArtCap Strategies has closed a senior secured credit facility to support the Bahamas’ National Blue Carbon Investment Fund, a sovereign vehicle established in 2022. 通过作为唯一安排方的《第3章》提供的资金将为该国蓝碳方案的生态系统测绘、科学验证和碳基线确定等早期活动提供资金。 The funding, provided through ArtCap as sole arranger, will finance early-phase activities like ecosystem mapping, scientific validation, and carbon baseline establishment for the country’s blue carbon program. 该倡议的重点是养护和恢复海草草原,估计覆盖全世界已知海草面积的41%,目的是根据《巴黎协定》第6条从高度完整性碳信用中赚取收入。 The initiative focuses on conserving and restoring seagrass meadows, which cover an estimated 41% of the world’s known seagrass areas, and aims to generate revenue from high-integrity carbon credits under Article 6 of the Paris Agreement. 在未来五年里,预计收益将支持气候抗御能力、生物多样性、基础设施和社会方案,标志着将自然资本转化为国家可持续发展融资的先驱模式。 Over the next five years, proceeds are expected to support climate resilience, biodiversity, infrastructure, and social programs, marking a pioneering model for turning natural capital into sustainable national development financing.
