Led by UNEP FI and the Finance for Biodiversity Foundation, this discussion paper aims to solicit the opinion of the financial sector on a proposed Finance for Nature Positive working model, including associated definitions and practices. Its objective is to help operationalize the concept of "Nature in Positive" for the private financial sector.

Published as a discussion paper along with a questionnaire, the working model should serve to advance consensus towards a common understanding on how private finance can contribute significantly to the goal of Nature-Positive.

The effort aims to lead to a viable framework that addresses both the positive impact and the management and mitigation of negative impacts on nature. It is intended to be relevant to private sector finance and to be in line with the Global Biodiversity Framework (GBF) mission to halt and reverse biodiversity loss (avoiding harm), towards nature recovery (generating profits). The framework should not only create a beacon of ambition for the financial sector, but also shed light on immediate and actionable actions that the private financial sector can take today. The co-authors hope to feed into broader discussions on aligning financial flows for the implementation of the MGB.
