Our Natural Assets - A Global Investment Opportunity
The argument for nature is financial. The world’s most sophisticated institutional investors are already pricing nature as an asset and its degradation as a material risk. Sara Taaffe does this for the Church of England Pensions Board, stewarding £3.4 billion on behalf of 44,000 beneficiaries. Hari Balasubramanian has influenced over $5 billion in sustainability-oriented financing across 60 countries, and brings a clear-eyed view of where Atlantic Canada fits in that global picture. The region holds an extraordinary endowment of natural assets. The investors exist. This session asks the room directly: what does it take to connect them, and who has the standing to make it happen? A conversation from The Gathering 2026.
