Biodiversity and nature have emerged as a prominent next focus for many investors, given how closely they are intertwined with the challenges of climate change.
In this episode, we speak with two experts: Thomas Viegas, Partnerships Lead at the TNFD and Liudmila Strakodonskaya, ESG Analyst at AXA Investment Managers. Together we explore the launch of the TNFD, why biodiversity loss is not only a risk but also an opportunity for investors, the adoption of new standards, the development of innovative investment products, and ways that investors can begin to collaborate.
