Environmental Social Governance
ESG is no longer just an issue of corporate social responsibility but also an issue of strategic risk management. Successful integration of ESG in any organisation starts with Governance. Understanding the related risks, opportunities, impacts and dependencies on nature, biodiversity, societies and climate must start at the top.
Nature and Biodiversity
Where the Paris Agreement and climate-related disclosure obligations originally recommended under the TCFD (now taken over by the IFRS Foundation) are a driver for carbon markets and related structured finance, the Kunming-Montreal Global Biodiversity Framework and the recommended disclosures under the TNFD are driving developments in the use of markets and related structured finance for nature and biodiversity projects.
Environmental Finance
Financial resources are required to enable the development, implementation, and scaling of solutions that address environmental challenges. Repurposing existing financial tools requires extensive experience in structured finance and a deep commitment to environmental sustainability.
