Resource Summary

ENCORE (Exploring Natural Capital Opportunities, Risks and Exposure) is a free, online tool that helps organisations explore their exposure to nature-related risk and take the first steps to understand their dependencies and impacts on nature. As a subset of the tool, the ENCORE biodiversity module has been developed to help financial institutions explore how to align their activities specifically in the agriculture and mining sectors with important global goals for nature. With a vision to establish a global financial system that works for nature and people, ENCORE is designed to be a useful entry point to nature-related assessment initiatives - such as the new risk management and disclosure framework developed by the Taskforce on Nature-related Financial Disclosures (TNFD) – guiding organisations through the early stages of their nature-positive journey, whatever their understanding or prior experience of managing nature-related risks.
