Understanding the EU Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism (CBAM): What it Means for ASEAN
As the Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism (CBAM) comes into effect this year, companies around the world are navigating a new landscape of carbon reporting, trade regulations, and supply-chain transparency.
In this webinar, environmental engineer and Director of Climate Policy Institute (Hungary), Dr Mónika Besenyei, PhD, will cover the policy logic behind CBAM, how it affects Europe and ASEAN, and implications for global supply-chain geopolitics.
Join us as we explore these questions together:
🗣️ What has been the reception to CBAM since entering into force this year?
💰 Is CBAM a de facto carbon tax on exporting nations? How can we think about imbalances in international trade in relation to CBAM?
🌏 How effective is CBAM at avoiding carbon leakage globally?
🤔 What lessons does CBAM offer for Southeast Asia, and what challenges or tensions might we face when designing policies for our regional context and local realities?
