This collaboration seeks to scale nature markets globally, starting in Africa, Europe, and the Americas.

Together, CreditNature and ValueNature will leverage their combined expertise to facilitate the flow of private and public finance towards achieving critical climate and nature goals. Central to this partnership is CreditNature’s proprietary NARIA framework.

The NARIA framework is specifically designed to measure the recovery of ecosystems under the Accounting for Nature® Standard and support investment via nature credits. This approach complements ValueNature’s established framework, allowing both companies to synergise their systems and apply their extensive combined experience to create a more robust and impactful nature market.

Key objectives of this partnership include:

Scaling up Positive Impact: Through collaboration, we are able to not only integrate our frameworks, but to also expand the coverage and scale of nature restoration projects, with many millions of hectares of land assets between the organisations.

Expanding Accredited Methodologies: We will work together to extend the Accounting for Nature® Standard from Europe to new regions, broadening the scope of accredited methodologies.

Incorporating Carbon Offsets: Our Nature Investment Certificate offering will now include carbon offsets, adding another layer of environmental accountability.

Developing Conservation Impact Credits: Beyond restoration, we are committed to ensure to protect existing high value ecosystems through the development of innovative conservation impact credits.

This partnership builds on CreditNature’s recent milestone - the world’s first accreditation of a Terrestrial Ecosystem Condition Method under the Accounting for Nature® Standard. Announced in April 2024, this groundbreaking accreditation paves the way for significant financial investments in global ecosystem restoration and natural capital.

The collaboration between CreditNature and ValueNature marks a significant advancement in the nature finance space. More importantly, it underscores our shared mission to innovate and create new opportunities for ecosystem investment and sustainability globally.

Simon Morgan, CEO of ValueNature, commented,

“We at ValueNature are incredibly excited about this opportunity to work with the CreditNature team. By leveraging the best of both our experiences and expertise, we aim to make significant strides in the nature credit market, driving meaningful conservation outcomes globally.”

Cain Blythe, CEO of CreditNature, remarked,

“The collaboration between CreditNature and ValueNature marks a significant step forward, consolidating opportunities for investment in nature restoration at scale. Together we offer a science-backed and high integrity way for corporate investors to secure sustainable business growth and help recover the planet.”
