Pollination’s strategic partnership with ANZ Group, seen in the light of efforts to speed up closure of coal-fired power generation in Australia, shows natural capital is gaining momentum as a standalone asset class.
The Australian agtech investor invested alongside Macdoch Ventures and Global Founders Capital in nature-based solutions provider Cecil.
Pollination founding partner Martijn Wilder says the ANZ investment ‘validates the business model’ and will turbocharge the firm’s next stage of growth.
The firm has previously said it will link the fund's fees to sustainability goals.
Fiona Reynolds, the outgoing CEO of UNPRI, says the organisation has a challenge: balancing an inclusive 'big tent' approach with the need to combat greenwashing.
The Australian government’s clean energy investment agency has continued its push into agriculture, backing alternative proteins start-up All G Foods.
The roadmap makes 37 recommendations for participants in the financial system that will help achieve net-zero emissions by 2050 and go further than government policy.
IFM has formed an internal taskforce to implement the new target, building on work it has already done in its Australian portfolio.
The firm says it signed the pledge because action is needed through policy and business to better mitigate global biodiversity risks.
The investment is Tenacious’s first outside Australia and the second overall from its inaugural fund, which closed in Q1 2020.
