A high-level panel convened to analyze the critical transition of nature-based solutions into a viable, investable asset class, highlighting Asia's projected 30% share of global carbon offset potential by 2030. The discussion detailed necessary financial mechanisms, such as targeting 9-10% returns for institutional capital and utilizing Article 6 of the Paris Agreement to facilitate international trade, while emphasizing technology's role in verifying smallholder integrity. Panelists concluded that scaling these frameworks is essential to tripling current nature financing and formalizing natural capital to meet global climate targets.
