Fastmarkets, a leading price-reporting agency and provider of market intelligence for the metals, forest products and agriculture sectors, has launched a new carbon intelligence product to support the growing need for effective decarbonisation strategies across commodity markets.
As international decarbonisation targets become more urgent and regulatory frameworks such as the EU’s Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism (CBAM) take effect, businesses are under increasing pressure to understand and manage their carbon exposure. In response, Fastmarkets has introduced a new carbon offering designed to meet the evolving regulatory and market challenges tied to climate action.
With deep-rooted expertise in global commodity markets, Fastmarkets delivers price assessments, intelligence and analytical tools tailored to sectors including metals, agriculture and forest products. The firm is known for its robust methodologies and data-driven insights, helping businesses stay competitive and informed in a rapidly changing global market.
Fastmarkets’ new carbon solution offers a comprehensive suite of tools that includes carbon credit pricing, detailed market insights and regulatory analysis. These services enable businesses to align their operations with climate goals, manage risks from shifting regulations and identify opportunities in emerging carbon markets.
The launch features two flagship offerings: “Carbon credits and removals” and “CBAM Insights.” The former provides historical price assessments, forecasts, and project-specific data across 11 project types through 2030, and four key market segments projected to 2050. It includes data for CORSIA Phase 1 and nature-based projects such as ARR, IFM and REDD+. Meanwhile, the CBAM Insights product, currently in early access, delivers cost impact analysis and supply chain evaluations, with a full rollout scheduled for August.
The service is designed not only to support compliance, but to help industries monetise carbon opportunities. Participants in forestry and agriculture can benefit from emerging carbon credit and removal markets, while manufacturers in aluminium, steel and alloys can proactively manage their CBAM exposure. The offering is available from 12 May and can be accessed via API-friendly tools, dashboards and custom weekly analytical reports.
Fastmarkets continues to build on its decades-long presence in the commodity space, delivering targeted insights and tools designed to cut through market complexity. The carbon intelligence launch reflects its strategic focus on sustainability and regulatory preparedness, aiming to help businesses thrive in a low-carbon economy.
Fastmarkets CEO Raju Daswani said, “Decarbonization is no longer a future goal — it is a critical business priority today. We’re excited to launch a comprehensive carbon market offering that equips industries to thrive in a low-carbon economy. By integrating reliable pricing, in-depth market intelligence and regulatory insights, we empower our customers to navigate uncertainty and transform it into a competitive advantage.”
Fastmarkets chief economist and head of environmental markets Stuart Evans said, “Our goal at Fastmarkets is simple – to cut through the market noise and deliver insights that genuinely help businesses stay competitive. With our rigorous methodologies, market forecasts and deep market expertise, we’re equipping companies to manage their carbon priorities with confidence while navigating this period of significant growth and change in exposures.”
