«This agreement is more than a financial milestone — it is a bridge between Latin America’s environmental assets and Europe’s regulated investment ecosystem. Our vision is to channel sustainable growth in a way that benefits all stakeholders, from investors to local communities…»

LISBON, PORTUGAL – Sept 23, 2025 — BlueGrace Energy Bolivia (BGEB), a company committed to environmental stewardship and innovative climate finance, has entered into a Promissory Investment Agreement with Aqua Partners Asset Management – SCR, S.A., a regulated venture capital entity registered under the Portuguese Securities Market
Commission (CMVM).
This agreement represents a significative participation by BlueGrace Energy Bolivia in Aqua Partners Asset Management, marking a strategic step to consolidate BGEB’s presence in regulated European markets while expanding the reach of its fully verified BlueGrace Amazon Carbon Token (BGACT), a digital asset listed on NeXchange. At the forefront of this evolution, BlueGrace Energy Bolivia (BGEB) stands as the pioneering company behind the world’s first ISO 6166 (ISIN) backed tokenized voluntary carbon credit, fully compliant with MiCA (EU), CFTC (US), and VARA Dubai regulations (www.vara.ae/en).
This breakthrough not only sets a new benchmark for market transparency and credibility, but also positions BGEB VCCs for seamless integration into global trading platforms—unlocking institutional investment and scalable climate impact across sectors.
A Partnership Rooted in Regulation and Trust
Aqua Partners Asset Management operates within the framework of Eurozone venture capital legislation, recognized for its stringent regulatory oversight. The company manages specialized investment vehicles, including the Natural Future I – Closed-End Venture Capital Fund, supervised by CMVM, and supported by Banco BNI Europa as depositary bank.
This partnership enables Aqua Partners to apply the valuation of BGEB’s carbon tokenization model as part of its capital operations or leverage strategies, all under strict regulatory safeguards.
BGEB’s involvement signals not only confidence in Aqua Partners’ capabilities but also a convergence between sustainable finance and traditional European regulatory systems.
The EU’s DLT Pilot Regime
The agreement coincides with the European Union’s recent adoption of the Pilot Regime for Distributed Ledger Technology
(DLT) Market Infrastructures, formally approved in March 2025.
This regulatory milestone introduces a structured environment for experimenting with blockchain-based financial instruments while safeguarding market integrity. For BGEB and Aqua Partners, the timing of the agreement is significant: it places their collaboration within the EU’s framework for innovation and transparency.
The DLT Pilot Regime recognizes three models of market infrastructures — DLT Multilateral Trading Facilities (DLT MTFs), DLT Settlement Systems (DLT SS), and DLT Trading & Settlement Systems (DLT TSS). Each framework allows financial institutions to test blockchain-enabled services under regulatory oversight.
This environment is particularly well-suited to BGEB’s BlueGrace Amazon Carbon Token (BGACT), an asset that embodies environmental value while adhering to traceability and accountability standards.
The Value of BGACT in European Sustainable Finance
BGEB launched BGACT as a voluntary carbon credit token, aligned with the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and verified by independent standards. Each token represents measurable and auditable contributions to forest preservation, climate stability, and indigenous communities support.
By connecting BGACT with a regulated European venture capital fund, the agreement bridges two worlds: • The impact economy, driven by climate-conscious investments.
• Traditional finance, overseen by regulatory bodies such as CMVM and the European Securities and Markets Authority (ESMA).
This convergence has the potential to create new opportunities for investors seeking both financial performance and environmental accountability.
“This collaboration reflects the capacity of European capital markets to embrace
innovation responsibly. By working with BlueGrace Energy Bolivia, we are
combining the transparency of regulated venture capital with the transformative
potential of digital environmental assets.”
– Jose Ma Sánchez-Simón, Compliance
Officer of Aqua Partners Asset Management – SCR, S.A.
Safeguards and Legal Framework
The Promissory Investment Agreement contains provisions to ensure compliance, transparency, and stability:
• Portuguese Law Jurisdiction govern the agreement, ensuring a clear legal framework.
• Provisions such as pre-emptive rights, tag-along, and drag-along rights guarantee balanced governance.
• A Guarantee Wallet mechanism secures BGACT tokens until obligations are met, adding further trust.
• Confidentiality clauses ensure sensitive financial and operational details remain protected.
These measures reflect both parties’ commitment to building a partnership that is legally sound and aligned with international standards.
Broader Implications
The collaboration has implications beyond the immediate agreement:
• It strengthens the role of Latin American carbon assets in international markets.
• It highlights the EU’s regulatory leadership in adapting to blockchain-based finance.
• It demonstrates how venture capital firms can integrate ESG principles into their core strategies.
For investors, regulators, and climate advocates, the partnership provides a concrete example of how environmental
integrity and financial innovation can reinforce each other.
Looking Ahead
BlueGrace Energy Bolivia and Aqua Partners Asset Management have committed to ongoing collaboration, particularly
through the development of the Natural Future I Fund, which will prioritize sustainable projects and align with Eurozone
ESG frameworks.
The parties expect that their cooperation will serve as a model for cross-border sustainable finance, where regulated
venture capital structures can effectively mobilize resources toward climate solutions.
As the EU refines its digital finance laws, and as demand for verified carbon credits continues to grow, the strategic
importance of such alliances will only increase.
