Natural Capital
Natural Capital is the world’s stocks of soil, water, the atmosphere and all living organisms.
It's the basis for the economy and human life as it underpins the production of goods and services, supports biodiversity and contributes to health and quality of life.
Managing Natural Capital sustainably is crucial to ensure these resources are available for future generations.
Risk Management and Advisory
As specialists in Natural Capital our mission is to bring integrity to Natural Capital Investments.
Our expertise enables organisations to navigate complex environmental investment decisions with confidence, through strategic risk management and expert due diligence in support of their journey to net zero, alongside improving biodiversity and social impacts.
We do this by ensuring carbon projects are held to the highest scrutiny allowing for the value and trading of carbon to be linked to real, positive and sustainable impact for society.
Our Services
Project Developer Advisory
We work with project developers at all stages of the project lifecycle providing holistic, expert guidance to meet the rapidly rising global demand for high quality projects.
Our multi-disciplinary team draws from over 25 years experience in the business of natural capital investment, science, biodiversity conservation and social impact methodologies from development NGO practice.
High Quality Carbon Project Assessment
We help de-risk the purchase of carbon credits in the voluntary carbon markets with our proprietary Quantum CarbonTM due diligence tool.
Organisations that use us for their carbon credit due diligence can feel confident they are optimising their carbon credit investments by reducing the economic and reputational risk of buying low-impact or high risk carbon credits.
Landscape Asset Valuation
We provide expert valuations of the asset value of landscapes where the biodiversity of that landscape underpins the ecosystem function which is creating revenue.
In commercial real estate, buildings are listed as an asset on the balance sheet. In a similar way, a landscape under management is valued as an asset because it underpins the revenue generated from biodiversity and a functioning ecosystem.
This allows our clients to accurately report their project's true value from an accounting sense when raising finance, as well as encouraging the protection of that asset for long term benefits for people, planet and the economy.
Biodiversity and Social Impact Assesment
Biodiversity loss is a critical sustainability issue and companies are beginning to seek ways to assess their biodiversity performance. We help organisations assess their impact to enable them to focus management and mitigation efforts where needed most, as well as highlight potential biodiversity and social impact gains.
Unlike carbon there is no single universal measure of biodiversity, although key components that matter to organisations hinge around ecosystems and species. We use a unique and innovative framework that bring together a multi-disciplinary synthesis of science, business analytics and rural community development to provide a robust assessment of impact.
De risking carbon credits
Complex data, simple metrics.
We de-risk the purchase of carbon credits in the voluntary carbon markets (VCM) with our proprietary Quantum CarbonTM due diligence tool.
Organisations that use us for their carbon credit due diligence can feel confident they are optimising their carbon credit investments by reducing the economic and reputational risk of buying low-impact or high risk carbon credits.
Our proven tool minimises the risk of trading within the VCM by providing crucial insights for:
- risk management strategies and mitigation measures for the sourcing and management of high integrity carbon credits.
- consideration of both avoidance and removal projects with defined co-benefits at a carbon credit strategy portfolio and project level.
- analysis that optimises the measurable impact of these investments and accompanying co-benefits.
Multi-disciplinary expertise
Over 25 years experience in the business of Natural Capital
For over 25 years working in forested landscapes and managing the complex problems of nature, people and finance, we've developed a deep understanding of the challenges. The issue of how to quantify and deliver the planned outcomes and impacts of development projects, particularly in a world with increasingly limited funding and more media and stakeholder scrutiny, became a specialist focus.
Delivering value for money, reducing risk and delivering a just and equitable solution is a complex undertaking faced by all nature based carbon projects.
By combining methods and insights from the NGO sector with business practice we radically reinvent how to measure and assess outcomes and impact with a pioneering methodology.
This experience combined with an entrepreneurial perspective has led to the development of our proprietary tools including the pioneering carbon credit DD tool - Quantum CarbonTM – specifically for nature based carbon projects – forests, mangroves, wetlands, agriculture and more.
