Nature Action 100 Company Benchmark Indicators

The Nature Action 100 initiative, the first global investment community-driven commitment to nature and biodiversity loss, has revealed a series of benchmarks that will be used to assess the ambition and nature performance of the 100 companies that are part of the initiative.

The Nature Action 100 benchmark index is based on investors' expectations of the initiative's companies and has been developed in consultation with investors. It consists of six high-level indicators covering ambition, evaluation, targets, implementation, governance and commitment. These indicators are supported by 17 sub-indicators and 50 metrics.

The initiative plans to publish the first company assessments based on the benchmark later this year and will update them annually thereafter.

Companies will be evaluated based on the quality of their information and actions. The aim of the annual assessments is to monitor the progress of companies and provide the necessary information on the actions of systemically important sectors to reverse nature and biodiversity loss by 2030.
