The Network for Greening the Financial System (NGFS) has published a summary note on improving modelling tools for nature-related financial risk scenarios, aimed at better capturing the links between nature, climate and the economy as part of its NGFS 2026 Nature Package. The note highlights key modelling gaps, including limited understanding of how climate change and nature loss interact, and points to a growing set of tools available to assess nature loss. It identifies priorities for future development, including more granular data, multidisciplinary approaches, and improved treatment of uncertainty, and sets out core design principles to support the development of future NGFS nature scenarios.
