Policy initiatives such as the UK Government’s Green Finance Strategy, HM Treasury’s Dasgupta Review, and Kunming-Montreal Global Biodiversity Framework acknowledge the vital role of the finance sector in addressing biodiversity loss amplified by climate change.
To turn these ambitions into tangible actions, the Natural Environment Research Council (NERC) is investing in cutting-edge research projects in ‘greening’ finance. With a Greening Finance portfolio of over £20 million, NERC-funded research aims to integrate considerations of biodiversity and climate at the core of decision-making within the financial system.
