Argus Media: Insuring CORSIA, what lies ahead?

CORSIA's market-building phase has only just begun. Can insurance capacity scale alongside it?

In the latest episode of Argus Media's carbon podcast, Oka CEO Chris Slater joins Alexandra Luca to talk through Oka's CORSIA insurance pipeline, what could disrupt supply, and how the insurance market is evolving ahead of the first BTR deadline in December 2026.

"Oka has insured, or is in the process of insuring, almost 8 million CORSIA credits. But that really is just the start. We are right in the foothills of a market-building exercise."

The conversation also covers the EU draft proposal, what the war in Iran means for both supply and demand, and why insurance capacity needs to expand if the market is to deliver against a first-phase requirement of around 150 million credits.
