  • NGFS release package with new tools to manage nature-related financial risks

    9 April 2026
    The Network for Greening the Financial System (NGFS) has released a new package of materials aimed at supporting central banks and supervisors in assessing and managing nature‑related financial risks. The package builds on the NGFS' 2024 Conceptual Framework and comprises three complementary notes covering: (i) nature‑related data, including guidance on identifying and prioritising relevant data sources and metrics, and the use of case studies and AI to improve data quality and availability; (ii) modelling tools for nature scenarios, highlighting current limitations in capturing interactions between nature, climate and the economy and setting out core design principles for future NGFS scenarios; and (iii) supervisory practices, proposing a pragmatic four‑step approach that builds on existing climate supervision and addresses current limitations. It offers a pathway towards a more integrated climate-nature prudential framework.
