Schroders Plan for Nature

PLAN FOR NATURE

OUR AMBITION Harnessing the power of investment to accelerate a nature positive future

Insights: developing our understanding and analysis to identify the exposure to nature risk companies and assets have. Influence: engaging with and influencing companies to reduce their exposure to nature risk and their impacts on nature. Innovation: offering investment solutions in public and private markets that channel capital to protect and restore nature and deliver long-term returns. All of this will only happen at the scale and pace required if we can come together with clients, governments and civil society groups to drive change and collective action.
