Unlocking the Potential of Ocean-related Data to Develop Insightful Blue Metrics for Financial Institutions

Resource Summary

The "Making Oceans Count" (MOC) program aims to leverage ocean-related data to develop insightful blue metrics for financial institutions toaddress biodiversity and climate risks. Despite the oceans covering about 70% of the Earth's surface and providing vital ecosystem services, there is a significant lack of investor-ready data. The program engaged Nordic and global financial institutions to identify needs for enhanced data insights on ocean risks and impacts. The report emphasizes the urgent need for actionable data to support sustainable investment practices in ocean-exposed sectors, and introduces a number of angles for how to approach this.
