The firm

A specialist firm for projects that have to actually work.

Cypress & Maple was founded on a stubborn observation: the carbon market is full of brokers who disappear at issuance, and technical shops that can’t price a credit. We do both jobs.

House view

A carbon project is a finance product wearing geology.

Every credit issued is a promise — that a ton was captured, that it’s still there, and that a credible registry will keep counting it. Promises like that require legal architecture, monitoring infrastructure, and counterparties who don’t vanish.

We built Cypress & Maple to be the firm that holds those promises together. When something breaks at year four — a Subpart RR amendment, a verifier change, a buyer reorganization — the call comes to us, and we resolve it.

That model only works on a small book of projects. We take a few mandates a year, and we work them for a decade.

If you’d like to meet the partners, write to us.

We’ll read your project, send back a short view, and — if there’s a fit — get on a call within the week.
