How do we approach nature as capital and what role does nature play in the capital markets? Awareness of the importance of nature's role in society and the economy is increasing, so has the concept of natural capital. In this seminar, we explore how nature can be valued – both as an economic resource, intrinsic value, and risk factor – and how different actors consider nature in their financial decisions.
Speakers from various sectors will bring different perspectives on nature's place in the economy:
- Nature as an input factor – the basis for all value creation
- Nature as intrinsic value – why nature must be protected, not exploited
- Nature as capital – how natural values are priced and affect the financial markets
The seminar concludes with a panel discussion, where we delve deeper into questions about how nature should be understood, managed, and valued.
