Biodiversity
Understanding dependencies and impacts on ecosystems and developing responses
Biodiversity is becoming increasingly important for companies in all sectors. Economic activities have a direct and indirect impact on ecosystems, habitats and natural resources - be it through land consumption, raw material use or production processes. At the same time, more and more companies are recognizing that the protection and promotion of biodiversity offers not only ecological but also economic benefits: Resource efficiency, risk minimization and the strengthening of social acceptance increase competitiveness and create long-term value potential.
International frameworks such as TNFD (Taskforce on Nature-related Financial Disclosures) and SBTN (Science-Based Targets for Nature) are becoming increasingly important. They provide guidance for systematically identifying nature-related risks and opportunities, making them measurable and incorporating them into strategic decisions. At the same time, biodiversity aspects are increasingly being incorporated into ESG ratings, sustainability reports and investor and bank assessments.
Companies that integrate biodiversity into their business processes, supply chains and investment decisions at an early stage reduce risks, meet regulatory requirements and improve their market position. Taking biodiversity into account is therefore becoming a key lever for sustainable, future-proof business.
