LGT, the international private banking and asset management group owned by the Princely Family of Liechtenstein, has strategically partnered with UK-based NatureAlpha to integrate modern scientific data into its investment decision-making process.
This collaboration aligns with LGT’s Sustainability Strategy 2030, which sets ambitious goals to combat climate change and biodiversity loss.
Recognising the need for robust data to assess investment risks and opportunities, LGT will leverage NatureAlpha’s expertise to refine its sustainability-focused investment approach.
NatureAlpha utilises curated datasets from authoritative scientific, regulatory, corporate, and governmental sources, along with AI-driven solutions, to help investors gauge the impact of their investments on nature. By doing so, the platform supports efforts to minimise biodiversity footprints across financial portfolios.
Ursula Finsterwald, head of LGT Group Sustainability Management stated: “Biodiversity loss poses a serious threat to both the systemic and financial stability of our planet. By helping investors make informed decisions based on reliable biodiversity metrics, NatureAlpha fills an important gap. Partnering with a company that has extensive expertise in highly complex nature-related data will be invaluable for us.”
Vian Sharif, Founder of NatureAlpha added: “We have been very encouraged to observe that the launch of the Taskforce on Nature Related Financial Disclosures (TNFD) has led to an understanding, amongst many companies, about the impact of their operations on the natural world. Furthermore, we are witnessing growing recognition and meaningful action amongst many financial institutions regarding their duty to safeguard Planet Earth. As one of the 194 signatories of the Finance for Biodiversity Pledge, LGT is helping to pave the way in what we believe will be a transformative year for nature-positive finance.”
