Biodiversity & Nature Capital

Managing nature-related risks requires a deep understanding of your impact and dependency on biodiversity and nature capital.

BIODIVERSITY & NATURE CAPITAL

During COP26, where nature was finally highlighted as a priority, 137 countries agreed to” halt and reverse forest loss and land degradation” by 2030

The importance of biodiversity is being increasingly recognized by governments and corporations. During COP26, where nature was finally highlighted as a priority, 137 countries agreed to” halt and reverse forest loss and land degradation” by 2030, while more than 30 financial institutions committed to stopping financing commodity-driven deforestation by 2025.

This has generated an increase in demand for Biodiversity leadership across consulting firms.  Forward-thinking financial institutions, who recognise the risks and opportunities in this field, are also making investments, while others are making more mid-level and junior investments in compliance with new regulations.
