Nature and biodiversity are finally being given their rightful place as an integral part of sustainable finance – and hopefully of finance more broadly.
Join us to discuss the key issues involved with natural capital investment approaches, regulation and policy, data gaps and more.
Some of the key areas of discussion include:
• Nature-related and biodiversity portfolio risks and opportunities
• Carbon markets and nature-based solutions
• Voluntary carbon markets – the latest developments
• Project development and financing at scale
• Regulation and industry building initiatives
• Investing in the blue economy
• Making an impact with blended finance
• Biodiversity credits
• The role of sovereigns
