| fhnw.lead | Companies nowadays aim to invest in projects, which create a positive environmental, social and economic impact. This has opened up new business opportunities and the invention of Insetting projects. This research reveals decision making process for investing in Insetting projects. | |
| fhnw.initialPosition | The increasing level of carbon dioxide emissions in the atmosphere leads to global damage. To reduce these CO2 emissions a number of different contracts have been agreed upon by States, such as the Kyoto Protocol. These regulations have also opened new markets, most notably, the carbon offsetting market and its accompanying sub-sector Insetting projects. This research was initiated to reveal the attractiveness of Insetting projects, to detect if the Philippines is in demand as a country within which to set up Insetting projects and to explain current investment decision making processes. | |
| fhnw.procedure | This thesis consists of two main parts, that is, a theoretical framework and a case evaluation section. The first section provides the reader with a general overview of the carbon market and Insetting projects, theories of decision making processes and the attractiveness of the Philippines as a country to invest in. The second part of the study undertakes an empirical collection of case studies that will illustrate if Insetting projects are in demand, how companies proceed in their decision making processes, and if the Philippines is an attractive country to invest in for these companies. | |
| fhnw.results | The combination of the results of the surveys, interviews and corporate information showed that various criteria have to be accomplished to make Insetting projects attractive for companies to invest in. A vital criterion is that the project developer should know the CSR targets and supply chain of his desired client, the company, very well. It is shown that Insetting projects should be as close as possible to the already existing CSR targets of a company. Furthermore, it is more important that the Insetting project has an economical perspective rather than has advantages in the stakeholder s communication or social benefits. The country where the Insetting project would be implemented plays a lesser part in the investment decision. The Philippines are in demand for mostly Philippines companies. The CSR department selects often the projects and the top management mainly decides finally. An obstacle in most of the cases is that the companies with already existing CSR targets have already implemented their own projects. A manual could be developed with an if ., then grid. | |
