On #InternationalBiodiversityDay UNEP FI is committed to showing how finance can work for #nature. The Global Biodiversity Framework (GBF), developed under the Convention on Biological Diversity (CBD), provides a strategic vision and global roadmap for the conservation and sustainable use of #biodiversity. Biodiversity is essential for a healthy planet and thriving economies. Financial institutions play a critical role in protecting our natural world by identifying biodiversity-related risks and opportunities, integrating these considerations into their investment and lending decisions, and supporting projects that benefit nature. Check out how each part of the financial sector can apply the Global Biodiversity Framework here: https://ow.ly/vXV150RRqqz

To effectively address nature-related risks and opportunities, business leaders are going to need reliable sources of data on the health of nature in places where they—and their value-chain partners—operate. But when the Taskforce on Nature-related Financial Disclosures (TNFD) assessed the nature data that’s available, it found quality shortcomings and no consistent taxonomy. We have been working with the TNFD to develop guidance for financial institutions to navigate biodiversity footprinting. Explore our Biodiversity Footprinting Discussion Paper which provides an overview of what biodiversity footprinting is, the current limitations with existing approaches, and six steps to getting started: https://pwc.to/48D4SlC #Biodiversity

Karen Nagel https://lnkd.in/gy75CuXR #biodiversity #bermuda #netpositive 1. Measurements of biodiversity need to be effective, robust and science-based, while securing broad consensus on what these are and allowing for heterogeneity reflecting the diversity of nature. 2. Buyers need to be confident that what they are buying is real and the claims they can make about them are credible, and that these support their business aims complementing corporate social responsibility and TNFD requirements. 3. Suppliers need to be able to ensure they can meet expectations of the market and safeguard integrity of their credits at an economical and fair price over the long term. 4. Nature’s stewards, including land managers, farmers, Indigenous Peoples and Local Communities, need to be involved in the design and development of these markets, have access to the biodiversity they preserve, and receive equitable rewards.
