Opportunities for Asset Managers – Law No. 15,042 – Requirement for Insurers to Invest Technical Reserves in Carbon Credits

Law No. 15,042 establishes a regulatory framework for the carbon market in Brazil, requiring insurers to allocate part of their reserves to carbon credits, creating new business opportunities and reinforcing ESG practices. There is room for portfolio diversification with low-correlation (zero-beta) assets, while strengthening the sustainability agenda in the insurance sector.

Our partner Diogo Nebias has prepared a brief bulletin on the subject, covering:

  • Fundamentals of Law No. 15,042
  • The CMN's authority to regulate
  • Potential calibrations to balance supply and demand for carbon credits
  • Opportunities in structuring funds and products (FIDC, FIP, among others)

Our team is available to provide specialized advice, support regulatory compliance and identify solutions that turn these new requirements into a competitive advantage for your organization.
