The vital role of biodiversity across social and economic dependencies has captured the attention of ESG investors. With biodiversity in focus and a surge of new datasets to inform investment considerations, we explore how biodiversity is measured, approaches to investing in nature, how we tackled some of the complexities in biodiversity data when redesigning PGIM Fixed Income’s Sovereign ESG Impact Rating framework, and aspirations for the future of biodiversity investing.
