As the European leader in the CO2 spot market, BlueNext aims to be a world leader for trading in environment-related instruments and will be pursuing this goal with the international deployment of a comprehensive range of products and services, whilst consolidating its user base across both financial and industrial sectors.

As a joint venture of the NYSE Euronext and Caisse des Dépôts, BlueNext benefits from the international reach of NYSE Euronext and its know-how in market operation, combined with the acknowledged expertise of Caisse des Dépôts in carbon financing, in particular as regard technology for the administration of allowances and registries.

One of the key drivers of the BlueNext growth plan is the development of new Environmental products and services for their membership to trade on the exchange.
