50 Investible Opportunities for a New Nature Economy Supplementary Appendix 2026

30 Sustainable fertilizers are natural soil amendments that enhance crop productivity and resilience by improving nutrient cycling and soil health, reducing reliance on synthetic fertilizers. – Soil restoration : Biofertilizers are produced from natural renewable sources and enhance soil health by supporting nutrient availability, microbial diversity, and soil structure, while maintaining yields. – Decreased water and soil pollution : Less run - off and residue than synthetic inputs, reducing eutrophication and GHG emissions Archetype Scalable Nature impact Transformative impact Suitability of financing and de - risking instruments Technological/ process maturity Capital intensity Scalability Bonds Loans Equity Other De - risking Commercial bonds Thematic bonds Sustainability - linked bonds Impact bonds Commercial loans Thematic loans / project finance Sustainability - linked loans Impact loans Commercial equity Private equity Venture capital Impact equity Blended finance Insurance Legend: Low High Low suitability High suitability Payments for ecosystem services Land ecosystem Ocean ecosystem Freshwater use Resource use Pollution Co - benefits Climate Social ✓ ✓ – Established production: Many products are commercially available for a range of crops across regions. – Variable adoption rates across regions and crops due to farmer awareness, market development and regulatory variability. – Financing suitability characteristics: Commercial loans and thematic bonds are well suited to established producers with predictable cash flows. Manufacturing facilities often have moderate capital intensity, enabling some use of project finance or asset - backed lending. Sustainability - linked loans are increasingly relevant when linked to environmental performance improvements, such as reductions in synthetic fertilizer dependency. Smaller manufacturers may also benefit from blended finance solutions (e.g. in collaboration with purchasers) to mitigate early - stage risks and accelerate market penetration.– Revenue potential from agribusinesses: Biofertilizers provide yield, and quality gains and supports organic farming practices. – Moderate upfront capital needs: Less capital intensive than synthetic fertilizer plants, but production requires specialized facilities Negative impact Positive impact Financing target M anufacturers Agri, Food & Forestry Chemicals, Plastics & Pharma Construction Materials Energy Mining Technology Transportation & Logistics Cross - sectoral Automotive Fashion & Textiles Leisure Waste Management Metals & Steel Conditions Matches quality and efficacy of synthetic inputs and avoids introducing pathogens Financial impact Revenue increase✓ Opex reduction – Capex reduction – Sustainable fertilizers FINANCING THE NATURE - POSITIVE TRANSITION
