Early market insights from ASFI’s Taxonomy Implementation Program reveal strong demand to expand the Australian Sustainable Finance Taxonomy to include climate adaptation and resilience — a low-cost, high-impact way to unlock private capital for Australia’s transition.

The Australian Sustainable Finance Taxonomy is the first in the world to cover the mining sector, and now ASFI is once again breaking new ground, after being engaged to explore science-based methods for developing draft taxonomy nature criteria for agriculture, forestry and land management – sectors critical to biodiversity, water, pollution management and national resilience.

Developed with Farming for Future and informed by collaborative engagement with the NCAG as part of the VNC program, this report shares final insights from the program, highlights key barriers to progress and outlines a proposed way forward to embed natural capital into mainstream financial decision-making.
