What is a TNFD report?

What is the purpose of TNFD reporting?

TNFD (Taskforce on Nature-related Financial Disclosures) provides the global framework for organizations to measure, manage, and disclose nature-related risks and impacts.

Building on the TCFD climate model, the TNFD reporting framework integrates nature data into financial strategy. It empowers companies to quantify ecosystem dependencies and manage their impact on natural assets.

Why is TNFD reporting important for biodiversity?

TNFD reporting integrates nature intelligence into the core of financial strategy. By quantifying dependencies and impacts, the framework mitigates ecological risk and validates accountability to investors.

This transparency is critical for building climate resilience at scale. It pinpoints high-value natural assets, tracks risk trends, and unlocks opportunities for regeneration. As organizations adopt TNFD biodiversity reporting, nature becomes a measurable capital asset rather than an externality—accelerating the transition to a climate resilient economy.

What is the aim of TNFD reporting?

TNFD reporting empowers organizations to integrate nature intelligence into governance, strategy, and enterprise risk management—mirroring the rigor applied to climate and finance . The structure of the TNFD reporting framework accelerates the identification of material risks and opportunities across operations and value chains.

Ultimately, it aims to redirect global capital flows: shifting away from nature-negative exposure toward activities that build resilience and regeneration, securing a nature-positive economic future.

What are the 5 drivers of the TNFD?

The TNFD emerged from five critical drivers integrating nature into US financial strategy:

  1. Biodiversity Risk – Unprecedented ecosystem decline threatens the stability of global supply chains and economies.

  2. Financial Materiality – With over half of global GDP dependent on nature, ecosystem collapse is a material business risk.

  3. Fiduciary Pressure – Institutional investors demand transparency on nature-related risks to protect portfolio value and capital allocation.

  4. Global Convergence – Frameworks like CSRD and SBTN are standardizing disclosures, impacting US multinationals with global footprints.

  5. Climate Resilience – Nature is the backbone of climate adaptation. Ignoring biodiversity undermines resilience strategies and mitigation goals.

Together, these drivers transform nature disclosure from a sustainability goal into a strategic financial imperative.

FAQs

Is TNFD reporting mandatory?

In the US, TNFD is voluntary but is rapidly becoming a market requirement for accessing capital and satisfying investor due diligence. For multinationals, global frameworks like the EU’s CSRD make alignment binding. Early adoption empowers organizations to mitigate risk, anticipate regulatory shifts, and secure a strategic advantage.

What are the 4 pillars of the TNFD?

TNFD is structured around four key disclosure pillars mirroring the TCFD:

  1. Governance – Oversight of nature-related risks and opportunities at board and executive levels.

  2. Strategy – How nature dependencies influence business planning, resilience, and financial performance.

  3. Risk & Impact Management – How the organization identifies, assesses, and mitigates material nature-related risks.

  4. Metrics & Targets – How the organization identifies, assesses, and mitigates material nature-related risks.

What is the LEAP Approach in the TNFD?

LEAP is the TNFD’s roadmap for assessing nature-related risk and opportunity. It stands for:

  • Locate your interface with nature

  • Evaluate your dependencies and impacts

  • Assess your risks and opportunities

  • Prepare to respond and disclose

Gentian’s platform aligns directly with each stage of LEAP, offering spatially explicit, repeatable data to support decision-making and reporting.

Who does TNFD apply to?

TNFD applies to any organization interacting with nature through operations, supply chains, or portfolios . This is critical for sectors like finance, energy, infrastructure, real estate, and agriculture . US companies focusing on climate resilience or SBTN alignment are strongly encouraged to adopt TNFD.
