Why we don’t rate Pre-Issuance projects

Key for us is transparency and accuracy. That’s why we made the decision to not provide formal ratings for pre-issuance projects. Rating these early-stage projects can be misleading, as they haven’t yet reached the point of verified issuance, making it difficult to accurately gauge their true quality and impact.

Instead, we provide detailed assessments offering you valuable insights without compromising integrity.

Deep-level insights for core project risks

We leverage our proprietary datasets, expertise and 4 key pillars to give clear comprehensive and actionable assessments

Supporting buyers with the information and industry expertise they need to validate their projects before investing.

A pre-issuance assessment helps discern not only whether a project can go ahead, but the quality it will deliver once it starts issuing.  By conducting a pre-issuance assessment investors can:

  • Ensure the Project's Credibility: Verify that the project complies with recognised standards and methodologies.
  • Evaluate Risk: Assess potential risks associated with the project's ability to deliver expected volume of credits.
  • Remedial Actions: Knowing there are detailed plans and remedial actions to handle unexpected obstacles as the project progresses.
Save time and resources not having to navigate multiple registries

Project Catalog is built on a process which pulls data from the registries on a daily basis, aggregates and normalizes it to make it directly comparable. The data is made available on our platform where our users can then discover projects & receive quality assessments.

"To fully unlock the potential of the carbon market, high-quality projects need more investment and more stringent due diligence before they even issue credits. Sylvera’s Pre-Issuance Solution provided actionable insights that enabled our team to act quickly on project opportunities and, ultimately, feel confident in deploying early-stage capital."
