Net zero and nature positive investing may seem aligned in their goals, yet our analysis reveals that certain net zero investment strategies could inadvertently embed nature risks. Our latest research also highlights the approaches investors can take for nature positive investing.
Different outcomes for net zero and nature positive
From assessing different investment tilt strategies focused on greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions exposure relative to broader nature impact exposure, we draw three key conclusions:
Insights include:
- Nature exposure cannot be reasonably mitigated through an approach that seeks to exclude or underweight specific sectors.
- Nature and GHG emissions exposures are aligned in the majority of circumstances, but an emissions-only strategy will have more limited benefits for nature.
- Nature creates overlapping dependencies across economic sectors that – if nature were to become more priced-in to markets – would undermine traditional diversification strategies.

Nuveen developed a proprietary ESG scoring methodology designed to evaluate a municipal issuer’s potential contribution to positive ESG outcomes relative to their peers.
Nuveen considers ESG integration to be the consideration of financially material environmental, social and governance (ESG) factors within the investment decision making process. Financial materiality and applicability of ESG factors varies by asset class and investment strategy. ESG factors may be among many factors considered in evaluating an investment decision, and unless otherwise stated in the relevant offering memorandum or prospectus, do not alter the investment guidelines, strategy or objectives. Select investment strategies do not integrate such ESG factors in the investment decision making process.
