Episode 9 - Financing Nature: Opportunity and Risks in Asia Pacific
Update: 2025-10-19
Description
A recent World Economic Forum survey ranks biodiversity loss as one of the top threats to our global economy over the next ten years. Yet, a 700 billion USD annual financing gap to halt and reserve nature loss persists. Why the disconnect between the recognition of the risks to our economies and the rate and size of investments made in nature?
Are the returns on investment in nature too small? Is the opportunity to invest in nature misunderstood?
To help clarify the picture, Matteo Marinelli, the Asia Pacific Lead for Sustainable Finance at the World Wildlife Fund (WWF) based in Singapore, provides a wide range of insights on the complex landscape of biodiversity finance.
