‘Connecting Finance and Natural Capital’ launches today in Hong Kong. Find out how natural capital impacts and dependencies can affect lending and investments. The Finance Sector Supplement, developed in partnership with the Natural Capital Coalition and VBDO provides a framework for financial institutions to assess the natural capital impacts and dependencies of their portfolios.
The Supplement will guide financial institutions (FIs) through the process of identifying, measuring and valuing material risks and opportunities as a means of informing financial decision making.
It explains why FIs should undertake this assessment, what the impacts and dependencies are, and what techniques to use.
The NCFA has developed a number of Resources needed to support these assessments, enabling financial sector to better understand – at both asset and portfolio level – the risks and opportunities asssociated with natural capital.
