MSCI - Biodiversity

Overview

MSCI provides access to metrics related to biodiversity and natural capital, designed to help investors identify and measure the impact of potential portfolio risks, report to their clients and stakeholders, and engage with companies.


Key features

  • Investors can address biodiversity risks in their portfolios or manage their reputational risk
  • Biodiversity-Sensitive Areas Screening Metrics enables investors to identify companies that have physical assets located in areas of high biodiversity relevance such as healthy forests, prime areas for conservation, deforestation fronts or species-rich areas
  • Deforestation Screening Metrics pinpoints companies exposed to deforestation-related risks, including those that may directly or indirectly contribute to deforestation. This could be a result of direct operations in areas of risk, such as the tropics, or by the production or reliance on commodities considered key drivers of deforestation such as palm oil, soy, beef or timber
  • These tools combine thousands of asset data points, overlayed with our proprietary location-specific biodiversity metrics to add greater clarity and focus for investors
  • Biodiversity underpins global economic activity. While investors are at various stages of integrating ESG factors into their decision-making, they may experience more downside-resilient and future-ready investments by considering biodiversity factors within ESG factors
