Robert Hall – Associate Director – ESG, Impact and Innovation at the International business of Federated Hermes said:
“We very much welcome the opportunity of being a collaborative partner to this project and recognise the significant value it represents. We see this project’s aims as a critical component of the establishment of a UK market for private investment in nature, which we strongly support. By establishing open standards for digital devices and their data measuring restoration of nature, increased climate resilience and biodiversity and environmental net gain, we think that emerging nature based investment projects will be able to digitally prove with data what they are achieving”.
