A new report from the Institute and Faculty of Actuaries and Anglia Ruskin University warns that nature loss is a systemic financial risk. The study highlights how soil degradation, pollinator decline, and deforestation threaten global food security and could trigger economic instability. The report argues that treating natural assets as infinite extraction funds is unsustainable. It calls for policymakers and financial institutions to integrate nature-based scenarios into their risk models to prevent catastrophic food price shocks and ecological collapse.
