Examples of Nature-based Solutions (NbS) and the role of insurance in these

Year: 2026

Type: article

Abstract: This table lists a range of examples where Nature-based Solutions have been used in insurance products. The examples were initially sourced as part of a NATURANCE Innovation Lab developed in collaboration with ClimateWise, an insurance industry member network convened by the Cambridge Institute for Sustainability Leadership. The Lab investigated how insurance can be an enabler to catalyse investment into nature-based projects. The list was since enriched with additional examples.
