Nature provides people, society and businesses with fundamental resources such as water,
forests and grasslands. With the increasing loss of biodiversity and ecosystems around the
globe, nature loss is becoming a risk to businesses and wider society. Alongside climate
change, biodiversity is now recognised by Governments and global institutions as a
systemic risk, with over 190 countries now signed up to the Global Biodiversity Framework
to reverse nature loss.
The Taskforce for Nature-Related Financial Disclosures (TNFD) aims to help organisations
of all sizes, sectors and geographies manage these risks and achieve positive outcomes for
nature. The TNFD launched in September 2023 and its main goal is to support a shift in
global capital flows away from nature-negative outcomes towards nature-positive
outcomes. At this stage, the TNFD will not be a legislative or regulatory requirement for
organisations, but is intended to be a voluntary and market-led initiative.
