The State of Finance for Nature Restoration Finance Report tracks public and private finance to restoration Nature-based Solutions (NbS) and compares these flows with investment needed to achieve global restoration goals (1 billion hectares to be restored by 2030) under the Rio Conventions. The report aims to provide policy makers, businesses and financial institutions with an evidence-based snapshot of the significant gap between current finance flows to restoration and investment needed to tackle ecosystem degradation.  Key findings include that restoration finance needs to quadruple from 2022 levels of US$64 billion to US$296 billion by 2030 to reach global restoration targets while contributing to climate and biodiversity goals. Governments provide almost three-quarters of finance for restoration, but there are opportunities for private finance to invest in NbS through biodiversity and carbon credits, regenerative agriculture and impact investing. NbS are cost-effective solution to tackle ecosystem degradation, providing biodiversity, climate and livelihood benefits in an integrated manner.
