Summary Note on the Improvement of Modelling Tools for Nature-related Financial Risk Scenarios

This note takes a forward-looking view of how nature-related scenarios can better reflect the links between nature, climate and the economy. It highlights current modelling gaps, especially in understanding how climate change and nature loss interact, and points to the growing set of tools available to assess nature loss. It identifies priorities such as aiming at more granular data, multidisciplinary approaches and better treatment of uncertainty. The note also provides a set of core design principles to support the development of future NGFS nature scenarios.
