Description: 

Financial institutions are looking for ways to assess the impact they have on biodiversity via their finance and investment activities. The aim of this guide on biodiversity measurement approaches for financial institutions is to provide comprehensive information and to help understand the approaches that are currently in use and underway. The need for such an overview was expressed by signatories to the Finance for Biodiversity Pledge supporting the implementation of their commitment 3 Assessing Impact. This guide serves as an annex to the ‘Assessing impact’-paragraph with approaches and examples of the Pledge’s more generic Guidance Document.
