Context
In June 2022, the Financing Nature Recovery UK initiative set out a framework for high-integrity Environmental Markets that outlined the need for institutional architecture to ensure that market rules, standards and accreditation processes are developed and applied in a transparent and predictable way in order to build and maintain investor confidence.
The Environmental Markets Board was first established in June 2023 and was formally incorporated as a not-for-profit company limited by guarantee in February 2026.
