AI fintech business NatureAlpha has launched Geoverse 2.0, an enhanced analytics platform designed to support companies’ and investors’ efforts to measure nature-related risks. The tool aims to provide a holistic, accurate and reliable evaluation of natural world risk across asset classes, in alignment with the Taskforce on Nature-related Financial Disclosures (TNFD) framework. This should ensure companies have the information necessary to mitigate nature risk. It will also allow investors to make informed decisions to protect their investments and comply with forthcoming nature reporting and disclosure requirements. Underpinned by AI, enhancements to the platform include more amplified data sources, accelerated calculations, optimised analysis and comprehensive asset locations. On the latter, Geoverse 2.0 applies 28 geospatial layers to its analysis of 8.5 million asset locations globally. “The optimisation of Geoverse 2.0 underscores NatureAlpha’s commitment to remaining at the forefront of quality nature data provision,” said Nick Hough-Robbins, NatureAlpha’s CEO. “Too often we hear that financial institutions are challenged by the inaccessibility and fragmentation of comprehensive, quality nature data, preventing action from being taken. We must dispel this common misconception, as the data is available now and it is time to act.”
