About the 6th Investment Case Symposium
Hosted in Luxembourg and online, the GLF–Luxembourg Finance for Nature 2023: What comes next? united 4,500 participants from 160 countries, 106 speakers, and 100 global and local partner organizations, and reached 10 million people on social media, with more than 230 thousand engagements, around how finance can solve – rather than exacerbate – the climate and biodiversity crises.
About this session
Many corporate and financial investors have adopted net-zero emission targets and biodiversity commitments. However, it remains difficult to ensure compliance in a robust and cost-effective manner, such as that agricultural loans do not contribute to deforestation, or to demonstrate that investments increase biodiversity. Impact investors are therefore increasingly demanding impact monitoring tools to ensure that investments generate no harm and provide restoration benefits in terms of enhanced resilience to climate change and biodiversity conservation.
