Systems Change in Nature Insurance
Driving innovation and bringing change-makers together to enable and scale nature recovery
Shaping the future for nature recovery
GaiaSicura works across nature, risk, insurance, finance, and enabling systems to help innovate against the barriers that prevent nature regeneration and nature-based solutions from scaling.
We bring commercial insight, specialist insurance, ecology and data expertise, stakeholder engagement and cross-sector collaboration to develop practical solutions that can be tested, adopted and scaled.

THE PROBLEM
The knowledge exists. The systems aren't connected.
Nature underpins economic resilience, yet ecological conditions remain poorly represented in many risk models, insurance frameworks and financial decisions.
Nature projects must also navigate disconnected systems, conflicting incentives and different timescales. The result is a gap between what we know about the benefits of nature and how that knowledge is used to manage risk, mobilise finance and enable delivery.
Nature is missing from risk
Ecological change is not consistently reflected in risk and financial decisions.
Evidence doesn't translate
Research and data do not always translate into practical market applications.
Systems work in siloes
Insurance, finance, science and policy often operate separately.
Finance struggles to follow
Risk, value and responsibility are difficult to align across stakeholders.
GAIASICURA'S ROLE
Connecting siloes. Enabling change.
We draw on our global networks and specialist expertise in nature, risk, governance and insurance to drive positive change across the wider market. Working with insurers, financial institutions, policymakers, researchers, and nature practitioners, we aim to improve how ecological evidence informs risk assessment, insurance solutions, and financial decision-making.

OUR FOCUS
Where we contribute
Insurance innovation and market development - Exploring how insurance products, underwriting and risk-transfer approaches can better support nature recovery.
Ecological science to financial decision-making - Understanding how ecological evidence and environmental data can be connected with the risk signals used by insurers and financial institutions.
Nature finance and investment systems - Identifying barriers to investment and exploring how risk-sharing and financial mechanisms can support nature-positive outcomes.
Policy, standards and market infrastructure - Bringing practical insurance and risk perspectives related to nature-based solutions into the development of frameworks, standards and policy .
Nature risk, resilience, and insurability - Assessing risks related to nature projects and nature-based solutions and advising on how these can be better understood, managed, and allocated.
Research, innovation, and collaboration - Connecting researchers, practitioners, funders and industry to develop and test solutions to shared challenges.
