CTX Celebrates 15 years of Westpac Bank Integration
For Cricket Fans worldwide the Ashes is considered the pinnacle of test cricket. So of course nobody could possibly have missed Westpac Banks sponsorship of the Australian team and the Ashes. But of course the UK Media had to pile on criticism in the face of resounding defeat for the English team as if they have no history. In October 2010 Westpac announced their announced their “deal to Support Carbon Trade eXchange” which was officially launched in early 2011. As the Sustainability Matters blog said then “Carbon Trade Exchange and Westpac have teamed up to create what is claimed to be the world’s first electronic interface for the voluntary carbon market. The solution will allow companies to trade as buyers or sellers into the Carbon Trade Exchange from their own bank account”.
15 years later, the technology that Global Environmental Markets built and CTX paid for is still running strong.
Just like the Veterans in the Aussie cricket team. Of course, we wish the English team all the best for the rest of the series, we guess they’ll get used to the Westpac Logo.
