The Lab is a joint initiative between The Business School’s Centre for Business, Climate Change and Sustainability and Edinburgh Centre for Financial Innovations, The School of Geosciences, The Edinburgh Futures Institute, Edinburgh Innovations and the Edinburgh Earth Initiative. The Nature Finance Lab will bring together financial data scientists, environmental scientists and policy researchers to understand how nature-related risks interact with financial markets and economies and more importantly, how financial markets can provide enhanced incentives for long-term nature protection.
The Lab will develop the knowledge, tools and skills to incorporate biodiversity-related risks and opportunities into planning, reporting and investment decisions for the finance and business sectors. In particular, the Lab will initially focus on:
Quantifying nature-related investment risk across financial asset classes.
Monitoring nature-related dependencies and supply-chain impacts on nature.
Building data science tools for continuous monitoring of nature concerns.
Building investment tools that incentivise nature protection over long periods of time.
