Whitepaper: Biodiversity Investment Expert Series
How to turn systemic risk into strategic opportunity
The decline of biodiversity is not only an ecological challenge but a systemic risk that directly impacts the financial sector. More than half of global GDP depends on healthy ecosystems. When these disappear, supply chains come under pressure, costs rise, and asset values fall. For institutional investors, biodiversity is therefore a strategic imperative.
The whitepaper “Biodiversity Investment Expert Series: Key Takeaways”, jointly developed by Robeco and WWF-NL, provides insights into:
- Material risks and opportunities: How nature loss affects financial performance and why integrating biodiversity into policy is essential.
- Practical integration: From screening and engagement in public markets to impact frameworks and blended finance in private markets.
- Concrete examples: Cases of biodiversity-focused bond portfolios, customized equity indices, and blended finance initiatives.
- Tools and standards: How frameworks such as TNFD and SBTN help make biodiversity measurable and investable.
Institutional investors are moving from exploration to implementation. This requires collaboration, standardization, and innovative solutions that deliver both nature-positive impact and financial returns.
