An investment fund targeting projects that deliver biodiversity benefits through the sustainable use of natural resources
The fund aims to invest in pro-biodiversity businesses that encourage sustainable use and conservation of natural resources, preserve and restore vulnerable ecosystems and biodiverse landscapes, mitigate climate risk and build resilience in local economies and communities in Central and South America.
The fund's investment criteria and environmental and social due diligence procedures have been included in the fund's environmental and social policies and guidelines as well as its environmental and social management system. These will ensure that the underlying projects are implemented in compliance with national requirement and with EIB environmental and social standards.
The fund will be required to ensure that implementation of the underlying projects is done in accordance with the EIB Guide to Procurement.
