Moving the capital
wild assetsWild Assets
I move capital across the carbon market at Wild Assets.
A first of its kind global asset manager for carbon dioxide removal, by developers, for developers.
Every carbon removal developer hits the same wall. The removal is real, the buyer is real, and what sits between them is an instrument somebody has to underwrite. Wild Assets underwrites it.
The instrument
A multi-year offtake, written against a standard before the credit exists.
The order matters. Designing a project against a recognised standard from the outset puts the monitoring, reporting and verification chain in place before a credit exists, rather than retrofitting it afterwards.
Instrument and sequence as described in Wild Assets' published notes, wild-assets.com, fetched 21 September 2026. No counterparty is named here.
The portfolio
Three pathways, held together on purpose.
- 01Enhanced rock weatheringPulverised basalt spread into agricultural soil. High durability premium, moderate to low capex, and a pathway Wild Assets argues is equitable for developing economies because the benefit lands on the farm.
- 02BiocharDescribed by Wild Assets as the most fungible and cost-effective segment of engineered CDR, with mature methodologies covering feedstock through pyrolysis to soil application. A hedge against the other pathways.
- 03Biomass storage in disused minesResidual timber waste injected into sealed mine chambers and monitored continuously. The newest of the three and the one most dependent on chain of custody.
Pathways and the reasoning for each, summarised from Wild Assets' published notes at wild-assets.com.
