A new report co-authored by Systemiq and global experts shows how to embed nature in economic decision-making across policy, business and finance.
Nature underpins directly over half of global GDP, our societies, and our very survival. Yet it remains largely invisible in economic and financial decision-making, leading to further global nature degradation. A new report, Making Natural Capital Count – an investment agenda, calls for urgent action to change that.
The report launched at New York Climate Week is co-authored by Systemiq (Guido Schmidt-Traub, Veerle Haagh, Boris Vergote, Oscar Ibsen, and Rebecca Nohl) and Naoko Ishii (University of Tokyo, Center for Global Commons), with close engagement of Amar Bhattacharya (co-chair IHLEG, Brookings Institution) and Eleonore Soubeyran (London School of Economics). It is a companion report to the Independent High-Level Expert Group on Climate Finance (IHLEG) and complements IHLEG’s core reports ahead of COP30 in Belém.
