The subject of natural capital investment is increasingly on the agenda for investors and central banks, whose interest in the theme could be as transformative as it has been for climate.
Despite the growing interest plus an increasing number of funds being created, natural capital investment opportunities remain limited and biodiversity needs to be built into consideration of all companies and their investors
