Excellent Article - This practice of long-term stable biodiversity credit flow, similar to the long-term stable consistent income streams, similar to carbon permeance or renewables (consistent $ per kwh) is being practiced in certain jurisdictions of Australia, with a worthy example of Victoria Australia.

Typically, these these income streams are government-supported, held in custody and slowly disbursed by the government over 10 years. It makes a lot a sense for a private project proponent.

The fee paid by the offset buyer is held in trust by Department of Energy, Environment and Climate Action (DEECA) or Trust for Nature and paid to the offset site landowner in instalments over 10 years.
