Comment mobiliser le secteur financier pour intégrer les risques liés à la nature et saisir les opportunités d'investissement favorables à la conservation de la biodiversité ?

Pourquoi assister à cette session?
In the context of the post-2020 Global Biodiversity Framework, it will be necessary to mobilize public and private capital as effectively as possible and direct it towards financing economic transformative models. We will discuss the current consideration of nature within financial decision making and how to scale up finance from all sources.
HideDescription
At present there is limited consideration of nature-related risks and opportunities within financial decision making and limited efforts to mobilize the financial sector for the conservation of nature. Given the current biodiversity financing gap at the global level, the role of public and private finance will be key to tackle the challenge of resource mobilization and fully achieve the objectives of the post 2020 Global Biodiversity Framework. This session will present the latest trends and work in this area. In order to go beyond pledges and commitments, it will discuss the enabling conditions for biodiversity finance to be scaled up through the mobilization of the financial sector from the perspective of regulators, central banks and public development banks. It will then be an opportunity to present concrete means of actions, tools and metrics available to private banks, insurers and investors to assess their dependencies and impacts on biodiversity.
