activities, you must first understand why biodiversity matters to your company.
We assist you to identify and articulate the business case for biodiversity. Some common

Development
Biodiversity Strategy DevelopmentA corporate biodiversity strategy frames the company’s biodiversity vision, objectives,
action plans, resource/capacity requirements, targets and key performance indicators
(KPIs).
We can assist you with the development and implementation of a biodiversity strategy.
Typically these include implementation of the mitigation hierarchy and the company’s
stance in relation to no-net-loss or net-positive-impact on biodiversity.
We are also experienced in the development of biodiversity action plans, which present
site-level strategies for the attainment of the company’s biodiversity goals.

Reporting and DisclosureBiodiversity disclosure is defined as the process of communicating biodiversity-related
information to stakeholders external to your organisation.
Transparency with respect to biodiversity performance assures stakeholders that
biodiversity related business risks and opportunities are being appropriately managed.
We identify, synthetise and communicate biodiversity information that resonates with the
value perspectives of your various stakeholders (e.g. shareholders, ratings agencies and
proxy advisors, non-governmental organisations and government).
