Emission rights

Background

This IFRIC project considered the accounting for schemes that are based on a 'cap and trade' model whereby participants are allocated (typically by a government body) emissions rights equal to a 'cap' (that is, a target level of emissions) and are permitted to trade those emission rights.

 

Current status of the project

This project has been completed. IFRIC 3 Emission Rights was issued on 2 December 2004.
