Become a partnerWhy nature evidence matters in financial services
Around 44 trillion US dollars of economic output, more than half of global GDP, is moderately or highly dependent on nature. Investors, lenders and regulators now treat nature loss as a material financial risk and expect credible, site-level biodiversity data before capital moves.
For banks, asset managers and project-finance lenders, biodiversity evidence has become a bankability threshold and a disclosure obligation.
