Kumo

For capital providers

Screen, assess, and execute carbon deals.

The data, diligence, and execution expertise behind every bankable carbon deal.

How you work with Kumo

Three ways to work with Kumo.

Connectivity

Screen the market: a vetted deal flow matched to your mandate. Start at diligence, not sourcing.

Diligence

Diligence a specific deal or your whole pipeline, run to the same standard against Kumo's data. Underwrite on evidence, not promises.

Structuring

Draw on how prior carbon transactions were structured and closed, with execution support to get the deal over the line.

Start at any point, or use all three.

Where deals stall

Getting a carbon deal to close is the hard part.

Of the 300+ projects we track, few are investable, and even those stall in execution: scattered data, diligence built from scratch, and collateral, cash, and delivery risk that are hard to price.

Terminal

Compare across the largest financial dataset.

Every other financial market prices on comparables. Carbon finance has never had them. Kumo holds the largest proprietary dataset in carbon finance, so for the first time you can stress-test every assumption, cost, throughput, timeline, and delivery, against real market data. Spot the weak points early, and focus your diligence where it matters.

In the data
Cost per credit, cash flow, delivery, and project comparison across 300+ projects, 14 methodologies, and 7 regions.

Diligence

Assess and diligence projects.

Diligence built for capital, not credits. Financiers focus on cash flow and long-term feasibility: whether the forecasts hold, whether the contracts and structure secure repayment, and how the downside stresses. Kumo assesses that across 7 dimensions, tests the downside, and checks every claim against comparable projects, with analyst commentary on the outliers worth questioning.

The three depths of diligence as a narrowing funnel, each band against the question it answers: Credit Memo (worth a look?), Data Analytics (how does it compare?), and Due Diligence (should we finance it?)

Execution

Structure the risk.

Carbon has no hard asset to pledge, so a traditional security package may not fit. Every deal needs a bespoke structure to apportion the risk, and aligning the developer and the capital on that structure is generally the biggest hurdle to execution. Kumo brings structuring experience that highlights and mitigates the risks that decide whether a deal is financeable.
