Carbon credit funds vs. U.S. stocks
Achieve exponential growth and global impact with Carbon Credit Funds. Why choose the volatility of stocks when Carbon Credit Funds offer high returns, lower risks, and measurable environmental benefits?
Higher returns, lower volatility
Carbon Credit Funds outperform U.S. stocks in both growth and stability:
U.S. STOCKS
Average returns of 7–10% annually, but highly volatile and tied to corporate earnings and market sentiment.
CARBON CREDIT FUNDS
Projected double-digit returns annually, driven by growing global demand for carbon credits and regulatory policies.
*Investment involves risk. Projected returns are not guaranteed, and actual results may vary. The Green Carbon Fund's projected double-digit returns are over the fund's term and include projected annual distributions of 8%, paid quarterly.
A booming market opportunity
The carbon credit market offers exponential growth. The U.S. stock market, while mature and steady, lacks the exponential growth potential of an emerging market like carbon credits.
2025 - Now
Projected $695 billion market size, growing at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 39.4%
2030 - 5 years time
Expected to exceed $4 trillion, driven by climate policies and corporate ESG commitments.
