The partnership combines SE Advisory Services’ advisory, sourcing, and due diligence with Evolution Markets’ transaction structuring and access to Xpansiv’s exchange and settlement infrastructure on selected European transactions.

Paris (France), July 15, 2026 — SE Advisory Services and Evolution Markets today announced a partnership to expand their carbon credit offering in the European market. The two firms combine their strengths to help companies meet climate commitments cost-effectively: SE Advisory Services through advisory, sourcing, and due diligence, and Evolution Markets through transaction structuring and market infrastructure. Together, the two organizations bring more than 45 years of combined experience in carbon and environmental markets. 

The two organizations collaborate on selected engagements, determined by client needs, geography, and transaction complexity. On every engagement, SE Advisory Services leads the advisory work independently: it sets portfolio strategy, provides access to a broad network of vetted projects, and conducts rigorous due diligence, drawing on deep technical expertise. 

Evolution Markets is engaged selectively, for specific European transactions where alternative execution approaches or infrastructure are appropriate. It contributes transaction structuring expertise and, through its parent company Xpansiv, access to market infrastructure: carbon market platforms including CBL Markets, the IATA ACE marketplace, and the Xpansiv Connect portfolio management tool, together with secure settlement, real-time data, and market liquidity. 

Where relevant, clients also gain access to Evolution Markets’ settlement platforms and governance frameworks, which strengthen execution, support transparency, and accommodate more complex transactions. Combined with SE Advisory Services’ network of projects, this provides an additional route to market where it is best aligned with client objectives. 
The approach is tailored to each engagement, combining the strengths of both firms for the client. SE Advisory Services delivers its full advisory offering across all engagements, and the partnership serves as an additional, fit-for-purpose option in specific situations where a particular transaction structure or market access route is relevant. 

For buyers, value now comes down to credits they can stand behind. As scrutiny on credit quality grows, that means due diligence that holds up and execution that is clean and traceable. This partnership brings the two together” – Fabien Chêne, Head of Sustainability Europe, SE Advisory Services.

“As voluntary and compliance carbon markets continue to converge, clients need advisory and execution partners who understand both the strategic context and the market infrastructure required to transact with confidence,” said Evan Ard, President of Evolution Markets. “Our partnership with SE Advisory Services brings together rigorous project diligence, portfolio strategy, and transaction execution expertise to enable  organizations access high-integrity credits, manage complexity, and support measurable and credible climate action.”Evan Ard, President of Evolution Markets
