3 The DutchApproach:Holland FinancialCentre CO 2working groupAt Holland Financial Centre working groups focus on differentthemes. One of the themes is carbon trading and financing, andthe Holland Financial Centre CO 2 working group has provento be very valuable for market participants and stakeholders,including banks, traders and brokers as well as emissionauthorities, ministries, compliance parties and consultants.Looking back, part of the success is our shared goal: ensuringa smooth transaction cycle and stable business climate for allaspects of emissions trading and carbon finance, includinglegal. Another key driver is Holland Financial Centre’s pointof departure: joint public-private cooperation. As a neutralplatform HFC is able to bring together relevant parties from allsectors, as can be seen from the list of working group membersbelow. The working group structure is useful and effi cient,especially when there is market turmoil, like suspension oftransactions in national registries last year.The structure made it possible for the Netherlands to respondquickly and effectively both at a national and international level.More generally, the working group ensures that implementationand execution of international carbon trading rules andregulations, including the directives on the EU EmissionsTrading Scheme, are carried out with an eye on the interestsof all stakeholders and the practical implications for tradingand transactions.17
