Nature risks are now too big to ignore. The data is clear that nature loss presents a material and systemic threat to economies and businesses across all markets. As a result, policy and regulatory risks, physical and operational risks, reputational risks and legal risks are accelerating faster than many businesses are prepared for.
In the run up to COP30, a group of nature-related investor stewardship initiatives and some of the world’s largest investors including PRI’s Spring, WWF, FAIRR, NA100, FSDA, IPDD, Generation Investment Management, Storebrand, have come together to produce a briefing pack to help investors navigate this new moment on nature. The pack is designed to:
- Set out a common story of momentum and a unified argument for investor and, in tandem, corporate action on nature.
- Raise the profile of the issue and help investors to get ahead of the risks and seize the opportunity associated with the transition to a nature positive, net zero, just world.
- Demonstrate increasing focus and alignment of investor expectations on nature and what that means for corporate action in 2024.
