Lots of turmoil in the #ESG space with the past 2 week seeing 3 major upsets. This post sweeps up some nutshell observations on #Tesla, #HSBC, and #DeutscheBank. Worth a read. https://t.co/VCjgFl2SXG

[ESG ORACLE @EsgOracle]

Great take on the ESG dimensions of #corporate #acquisitions. There is a parallel to value-investing... sometimes firms with #ESG weaknesses are great targets as they represent opportunities to create real value through reform & improvement of #ESG factors

Accelerated #investment in #NatureBasedSolutions will be an integral driver of #climateresilience & the achievement of #netzero objectives. 'Resourcing Our Future' outlines a promising new framework to facilitate #NbS at scale in the North East. Read here: https://t.co/LmV48K1Tdo

[ESG ORACLE @EsgOracle]

Based around a central #taxonomy of template #investment models, the framework we are developing is designed to help real-world practitioners align #development efforts with key #ESG #investment criteria to facilitate the creation of a £1.5 bn pipeline of #NaturalCapital

A useful graphic from @Nossa_Data
For corporate #ESG endeavours to land, surface level cosmetics (pledges, policies and #sustainability reports) must reflect deeper strategic #integration throughout the strata of the firm, guided & validated by proper #measurement

[ESG ORACLE @EsgOracle]

What arguments are #assetmanagers using to escape #DNSH criteria? Is the text of the legislation itself at fault? Can the wording be tightened / amended to prevent firms gaming the system? Or is this actually an enforcement issue? Regulators need to step up?

Is #SFDR being gamed? @CapitalMonitorA reports that 8/10 '#sustainable' #funds in Europe hold #fossilfuel stocks (https://t.co/XEjrJOvrnB) Why is the 'do no significant harm' clause in Article 2(17) not proving effective? Discuss...

[ESG ORACLE @EsgOracle]

#SFDR defines #sustainable #investment in terms of either #environmental or #social objectives "provided that such investments do not significantly harm any of those objectives". In turn, #eutaxonomy defines #harm as activity which "leads to significant greenhouse gas #emissions"

Great to see the @InsuResilience partnership widening. #Disaster #Risk #Resilience, or disaster risk reduction (#DRR) is a major theme that will increasingly magnetise #ESG and #sustainablefinance flows - especially in the #naturalcapital space.

[InsuResilience Global Partnership @InsuResilience]

We are happy to welcome our newest member @USAID to the @InsuResilience Global Partnership.

With a membership base growing stronger every day we are on track to strengthen resilience globally with #climate and #disaster risk #finance and insurance

@Hannah_Godfrey Great article @Hannah_Godfrey... will be interesting to follow this especially with respect to their (current) @BCorporation status. #Governance standards are pretty central for BCorps - so this will be a test of how credible the certification standard really is.

[ESG ORACLE @EsgOracle]

Deploying #NaturalCapital is still a challenge. But we're sharing how #Insurance based #revenue models may be the key to future deployment: https://t.co/5ZLv1LwXsB

[ESG ORACLE @EsgOracle]

There is growing evidence.
@OregonState published an incredible study (https://t.co/xuBVbi6UvH) showing how reintroduction of #wolf predation, changed #elk grazing patterns, leading to natural reforestation of waterways that "drastically reduced frequency of overbank flows"

[ESG ORACLE @EsgOracle]

The #economic power of #NaturalCapital is far reaching... This is a fascinating example of how reintroduction of #wolves to an #ecosystem contributed to a measurable 24% reduction in vehicle collision with #deer. This carries obvious economic upsides for #insurance providers.

[Nicholas D. Carter @NicholasDCarter]

New study finds that there's a 63 times greater economic benefit to reintroducing wolves than the costs associated to wolf predation on farmed animals.

Wolves change deer movement patterns which contribute to a 24% reduction in vehicle collisions. https://t.co/AdEoTXVhMG
