This guide offers practical guidance for structuring and assessing nature-themed bonds. It supports issuers, investors and reviewers in aligning finance with the Kunming-Montreal Global Biodiversity Framework, focusing on biodiversity and ecosystem protection.
Designed for use-of-proceeds instruments like green and sustainability bonds, the guide introduces an optional “Nature Bond” label for projects exclusively funding nature. It also outlines how public entities can develop biodiversity finance plans through policy reviews, needs assessments, and targeted strategies.
While centred on bonds, its guidance extends to sustainability-linked loans, aiming to embed nature in financial decision-making and spur investment in ecosystem resilience.
