ISLINGTON, U.K. - s4story -- Go Balance Ltd has achieved a major milestone in the evolution of nature-based finance by listing its first tranche of verified carbon credits within the Northern Trust Carbon Ecosystem (NTCE). This development formally classifies the credits as Digital Financial Assets (DFAs), providing institutional-grade custody, transparent lifecycle management, and verifiable provenance for the credits generated through the Trocano Araretama REDD+ Project in Brazil.

This represents an important step in aligning verified carbon credits with banking infrastructure. By embedding verified REDD+ Natural Capital Credits into Northern Trust's secure custody systems, Go Balance has demonstrated how nature-based assets can operate within the same trusted environment that underpins traditional financial instruments.

"Go Balance is proud to be the first REDD+ project developer to have its credits formally classified as Digital Financial Assets. This achievement proves that verified, high-integrity nature-based projects can exist within institutional-grade financial systems—strengthening trust, transparency, and auditability," said Ciaran Kelly, CEO of Go Balance Ltd.

Why This Matters
Scaling credible climate action requires both real-world impact and modern market infrastructure. Too often, the voluntary carbon market has delivered one without the other.

With verified Natural Capital Credits now registered within Northern Trust's Carbon Ecosystem, Go Balance unites measurable conservation outcomes with bank-grade custody and governance. Buyers and institutions gain assurance through clear ownership, transparent transfer processes, and immutable audit trails across the full lifecycle of each credit.  Go Balance will expand the availability of further tranches in the coming weeks.

From Offsets to Financial-Grade Climate Assets
Digitalisation has transformed Go Balance credits into custody-ready DFAs, integrating verified REDD+ outcomes into institutional systems for the first time. Through Northern Trust's infrastructure.  Each credit benefits from bank-grade custody and operational standards, ownership is clearly defined under UCC Article 8, providing enforceable rights and fiduciary protection, and credits are recognised as intangible commodities under CFTC classification, ensuring legal clarity and oversight.
