Natural capital

Nature is not just a nice-to-have, it is the foundation of our economies

As the essential building blocks of life, nature and the climate are of critical importance.

From agriculture and clean water to raw materials, over half of global GDP depends on nature. Yet, ecosystems are under growing pressure, with biodiversity loss and climate change threatening the very resources businesses and economies rely on.

Investors and policymakers are waking up to this reality. Natural capital – forests, oceans, wetlands – must be valued not just as environmental assets but as economic ones. Protecting and restoring nature is not just an ethical imperative; it is a financial necessity.
