SEASON 3 | EP 5 | Building a Nature-First Economy with Integrity
Description
Marc Palahí, Chief Nature Officer at Lombard Odier Investment Managers, explains why nature is now financially material and where opportunities are emerging across regenerative agriculture, sustainable forestry and circular bio-based value chains. Margaret Kim, CEO of Gold Standard, brings the integrity perspective, outlining how strong baselines, standards and verification make nature-based solutions credible and investable. Together with host Karen Hitschke, they explore how science, finance and governance can converge to build a nature-first economy grounded in measurable impact and long-term resilience.
As nature becomes a central factor in economic stability and long-term value, investors are rethinking how ecosystem health shapes risk, resilience and growth. Rising disclosure expectations and mounting scientific evidence are pushing nature firmly into mainstream financial decision-making.
