This white paper, by the World Economic Forum’s Global Future Council on Nature-Based Solutions, takes a practical look at the investment landscape for nature and nature-based solutions. In doing so, it charts two complementary pathways for private-sector stakeholders: one to mainstream investments in nature that already demonstrate a positive business case with strategic and operational action; the other where financial returns are not yet in place, to call on governments to create a fit-for purpose enabling environment for investments in nature to become more financially attractive.
The paper lays out eight actions that the private sector can already take to
start mainstreaming investments in nature, and eight actions that the public sector can take while business leaders advocate vocally and create pressure for these reforms.
