In particular, the creation of a voluntary and cooperative carbon market \u2013 which is addressed in Article 6 of the \u2018Paris Rulebook\u2019 \u2013 is expected to be the subject of much debate this year. At present, with no consensus on a global carbon pricing yet reached among the Parties, 64 local initiatives have been established<sup>[2]<\/sup>&nbsp;and others are underway.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In particular, carbon border taxes are rapidly gaining ground to become a credible, even probable scenario, in the context of the significant increase in exports over the past decades. Figure 1 from our&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.ftserussell.com\/research\/cross-border-carbon-potential-carbon-border-taxes\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">recent analysis<\/a>&nbsp;shows that exports now account for 30% of global GDP, which represents around 25% of territorial GHG emissions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"904\" height=\"597\" data-src=\"\/campus\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2021\/10\/image-94.png\" alt=\"Shares of exports in global GDP and share of exported GHG in territorial GHG\" class=\"wp-image-108247 lazyload\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/ibkrcampus.com\/campus\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2021\/10\/image-94.png 904w, https:\/\/ibkrcampus.com\/campus\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2021\/10\/image-94-700x462.png 700w, https:\/\/ibkrcampus.com\/campus\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2021\/10\/image-94-300x198.png 300w, https:\/\/ibkrcampus.com\/campus\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2021\/10\/image-94-768x507.png 768w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 904px) 100vw, 904px\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 904px; aspect-ratio: 904\/597;\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>If implemented,&nbsp;a carbon border&nbsp;tax could have significant consequences on the global markets and for investors. The version of such tax currently under the spotlight is the Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism (CBAM) proposed in July 2021 by the European Commission<sup>[3]<\/sup>. It intends to make EU importers buy carbon certificates \u201ccorresponding to the carbon price that would have been paid, had the goods been produced under the EU\u2019s carbon pricing rules\u201d<sup>[4]<\/sup>. The CBAM\u2019s purpose is to avoid \u201ccarbon leakage\u201d by putting on an equal footing European countries subject to strict environmental standards, and exporting countries outside the EU less constrained by such regulations. If approved, it could apply progressively from 2026 to the following sectors, chosen among the most emissive: electricity, iron and steel, cement, fertilisers, and aluminium.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Ultimately, the European Commission is seeking to reduce imports whose production generates significant amounts of green-house gases (GHG) and therefore to promote less carbon-intensive processes. The pricing and a better knowledge of carbon flows could help drive the reallocation of investments towards the energy transition and activities such as low-carbon energy production, energy renovation of buildings, public transport or energy efficiency of industries.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A carbon border tax could take a number of shapes and the CBAM\u2019s proposal is only one of them. For instance, indirect emissions related to the use of electricity for manufacturing are not included in the European mechanism<sup>[5]<\/sup>, and the carbon policies of exporting countries are not taken into account apart from the explicit price of carbon in the country of origin<sup>[6]<\/sup>. Regardless of its characteristics, the CBAM is certainly noteworthy because it signals a major change in approaches to carbon pricing. Our paper&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.ftserussell.com\/research\/cross-border-carbon-potential-carbon-border-taxes\">\u201cCross border carbon &amp; potential carbon border taxes\u201d<\/a>&nbsp;explores this idea and looks at the principle of carbon border mechanisms and their potential macroeconomic and financial implications for investors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A key aspect is the international impact of a border tax, which would affect not only the country or economic group that chooses to impose it but also its trade partners, and could eventually lead other regions to considering similar schemes. By correcting the problems of carbon price differentiation between countries, it is likely to alter the competitiveness of countries\u2019 exports. This could be the case, for example, for countries with more carbon-intensive energy systems&nbsp;or greater dependency&nbsp;on exports from high-emitting economic sectors. In the long term, a change in market trades based on the carbon efficiency of countries could be envisioned.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Some countries are more at risk from such developments, notably emerging markets whose exports are often more carbon intensive. This is illustrated in Figure 2 that presents the GHG content of exports (by unit of exports value) and the size of exports in the economy (in % of GDP) for 50 focus countries<sup>[7]<\/sup>. All countries within the scope have a share of exports larger than 10% of GDP, which is already a significant exposure. However, almost all countries with high carbon intensity of exports \u2013 beyond a threshold of 400 tCO2e \/ USD millions of exports \u2013 are emerging markets. Using the CBAM example, the additional cost for developing countries\u2019 exports to the EU could reach $16 billion, which could have the effect of reducing development-led opportunities for these countries<sup>[8]<\/sup>. On the other end of the spectrum, the most export-exposed countries \u2013above 60% of GDP\u2013 have relatively moderate levels of carbon intensity of exports, which could help mitigate their risks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"904\" height=\"611\" data-src=\"\/campus\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2021\/10\/image-95.png\" alt=\"GHG content of exports and exports\/GDO ratios for the study's 50 focus countries\" class=\"wp-image-108248 lazyload\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/ibkrcampus.com\/campus\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2021\/10\/image-95.png 904w, https:\/\/ibkrcampus.com\/campus\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2021\/10\/image-95-700x473.png 700w, https:\/\/ibkrcampus.com\/campus\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2021\/10\/image-95-300x203.png 300w, https:\/\/ibkrcampus.com\/campus\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2021\/10\/image-95-768x519.png 768w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 904px) 100vw, 904px\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 904px; aspect-ratio: 904\/611;\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Note: three countries are not shown due to high values, i.e. Pakistan (3,530 tCO2e \/ USD million and 10% values), Ethiopia (15,429 tCO2e \/ USD million and 8%) and Luxembourg (36 tCO2e \/ USD million and 209%).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The path to carbon border pricing policies is still paved with uncertainties and associated debates. As impacts are expected on trade flows, there will be losers and winners from such policies, with country and sector implications as well as material capital reallocations. However, it is already possible to anticipate some of the upcoming risks and opportunities. From a practical perspective, studying carbon tariffs at the border would also add a dimension to stress tests as a factor that could drive future developments. This could help strengthen investors\u2019 long-term approaches to risk management, by providing additional insight into the complexity of possible climate pathways or political choices.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For more on this, read the&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.ftserussell.com\/research\/cross-border-carbon-potential-carbon-border-taxes\">paper<\/a>&nbsp;or subscribe to the&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www2.lseg.com\/FTSE-Russell-Blog-Sign-Up\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">blog<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>[1]UN Climate Change Conference 2021.
