The collaboration will expand the reach of CIX’s trade database, bringing high-quality transaction data and pricing insights to a broader set of market participants
Singapore and London, 23 July 2025 – Climate Impact X (CIX), a global environmental markets exchange, today announced its collaboration with MSCI Inc. (NYSE: MSCI), a leading provider of critical decision support tools and services for the global investment community, to distribute its carbon trade database through MSCI’s new dashboard.
CIX launched its market intelligence arm—CIX Intelligence—in 2024 to raise market-wide price transparency and support data-driven decision-making across the voluntary carbon market (VCM). Through this tie-up, CIX’s trade database will be made available within MSCI’s Carbon Markets suite, offering market participants greater access to high-quality pricing insights and transaction-level visibility.
CIX’s dataset includes tens of thousands of real, project-level historical and daily-updated price points from the carbon spot market and CIX’s trading venues. Users will gain granular insights into project-specific and credit-type price dynamics, including vintage and volume price impacts and evolving liquidity patterns—enabling better-informed, data-led procurement, risk management and trading.
Julien Hall, Head of Intelligence at Climate Impact X, said, “We’re pleased to widen access to our trade database through MSCI’s cutting-edge platform. VCM pricing is often seen as opaque, and this collaboration helps address that by putting actual spot trade, bid and offer data into the hands of more market participants. Our goal is to support better-informed procurement, sales, accounting and analysis—ultimately contributing to a more transparent and well-functioning carbon market.”
William Zimmern, Head of Carbon Markets Products at MSCI, said, “Reliable, high-frequency pricing data is critical to understanding the potential of carbon markets. By integrating CIX’s transaction datasets into MSCI’s Carbon Markets platform, we are equipping market participants with actionable intelligence to help them navigate this complex and evolving space. This collaboration reinforces our commitment to delivering the data-driven tools investors and businesses need to support the net-zero transition.”
CIX’s trade database will be accessible via MSCI’s data platform, which supports over 7,000 clients in more than 95 countries, as of 31 March 2025.
