Resource Description

This presentation to IFC SBFN (October 2022) highlights the systemic importance of nature-related risks and introduces the Taskforce on Nature-related Financial Disclosures (TNFD) framework for managing and disclosing these risks.

Why This Matters

Addressing nature risks in finance can redirect capital toward nature-positive outcomes, strengthen resilience, and advance net-zero goals.

Key Insights

Nature-related risks like biodiversity loss, resource crises, and extreme weather are now top global risks for business and finance
Risks include physical, transition, and systemic, with major financial consequences (eg, Pacific Gas & Electricity)
TNFD framework, aligned with TCFD, guides assessment of dependencies, impacts, risks, and opportunities via the “LEAP” approach
Supported by G7/G20
Ongoing priorities include pilot testing, metric development, scenarios, and final recommendations in 2023
