HSBC to asset management venture for natural capital
Friday 04 Sep 2020

Some of these projects will likely qualify as nature-based solutions, such as sustainable forestry and regenerative agriculture. The venture is expecting to raise up to $1b for its first fund in 2021. It will help meet the rising demand of asset owners to invest in nature-positive, sustainable projects.
