A group of investors with a combined $3 trillion in funds have launched a new campaign to pressure the companies they own to do more to fight the decline in biodiversity.
AXA Investment Managers, Columbia Threadneedle Investments, BNP Paribas Asset Management and eight other asset managers are backing the program, called Nature Action 100, with a view to getting at least 100 firms to protect and restore ecosystems via investor-company engagements.
