Carbon emissions have been traded, albeit at minor levels, in the over-the-counter (OTC) market since the 1990s. In recent years, significant global governmental involvement in the stabilization of the concentration of atmospheric greenhouse gases has facilitated tremendous growth in the market for carbon emissions trading. The value of the carbon market has grown from $727 million in 2004 to $118 billion in 2008.
In addition to the foundational regulatory organizations that have established the framework of the market, and the pre-requisite buyers and sellers, the magnitude and evolving complexity of the global carbon markets has attracted numerous intermediaries, such as brokers, exchanges, aggregators, and financiers, as well as other peripheral participants such as validation and verification, information and analysis, legal, and consulting service providers.
