NatureAlpha's data will be available through Intercontinental Exchange's (ICE) Climate Analytics Platform.
NatureAlpha's data provides biodiversity and nature risk insights across 8.5 million global asset locations. ICE Climate has mapped these metrics to its universe of fixed income and equity instruments—including 1.7 million corporate bonds and 11,500 global equities.
"Biodiversity loss is a consideration when analyzing climate and financial stability, and with the addition of NatureAlpha data, we are providing clients with the tools to help them manage climate and nature-related financial risks, supporting everything from trading strategies to reporting and regulatory compliance," said Larry Lawrence, Head of ICE Climate.
Nick Hough-Robbins, CEO of NatureAlpha, said: "The integration of our nature and biodiversity data within ICE's Climate Analytics platform will empower clients to understand and mitigate their natural world risk, as we strive towards a common goal, to equip organisations with the data necessary for them to consider the planet, when making investment, capital allocation and business-related decisions."
ICE's climate data offering also includes physical climate risk, transition risk, and social impact metrics.
