Biodiversity and nature-related risks are interconnected yet complex, often leading to confusion when assessing the sustainability risks of corporate issuers. The Taskforce on Nature-related Financial Disclosures (TNFD) and other emerging frameworks aim to simplify these complexities and facilitate effective reporting.

ICE has a strategic alliance with NatureAlpha, a leading provider of nature and biodiversity metrics, to offer a comprehensive suite of data products for both equities and corporate fixed income securities that help investors to quantify their nature-related risks and prepare to report to regulatory requirements such as the TNFD or Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive (CSRD).

The Nature & Biodiversity solution takes a modular approach to building comprehensive analytics to reflect the complexity of nature. Each module is built on a series of sub-models utilizing curated datasets from the world’s most authoritative scientific, regulatory, corporate, and government sources. These models assess a company’s exposure to multiple aspects of risk, including impacts and dependencies, regulation, reputation, and risks generated from geographical proximity to biodiversity-sensitive areas.
