Biodiversity strategy development for a multinational corporation in the CRE sector.

- Client: one of the leading CRE holding companies operating in the CEE region- Year: 2024-2025- Location: Central and Eastern Europe

A large retail and mixed-use portfolio real estate company was exposed to growing physical (water stress, floods, UHI, habitat loss) and transition (regulation, investor scrutiny, green financing) risks. The Group asked Deep Eco to convert these risks into an actionable, measurable strategy that meets SBTN methods and is ready for TNFD/ESRS disclosure.
The brief:
- Establish governance & accountability for nature across the Group. - Assess material nature impacts and dependencies across the full portfolio and supply chain. - Prioritise assets and set science-based targets (SBTN) and KPIs ready for TNFD & ESRS reporting. - Produce a practical biodiversity management & monitoring plan with independent verification to satisfy investors and regulators.
Based on the client's data and relevant industry standards, Deep Eco's team conducted a biodiversity audit of the client's operations, using the findings to develop a comprehensive biodiversity strategy along with a monitoring plan and TNFD reporting metrics. The engagement encompassed the following key activities:
- Materiality and Value Chain Assessment: Identifying critical areas of impact across the client's operations and supply chain.- Biodiversity and Ecosystem Health Assessment: Evaluating the current state, changes, and trends in natural environments within the client's locations.- Assessment of Nature-Related Impacts, Risks, Dependencies, and Opportunities: Analyzing how the client's activities interact with natural capital.- Scenario Analysis (TNFD Methodology): Exploring potential future states and their implications for nature and business.- Development of SBTN Targets and KPIs: Setting science-based targets for nature and defining key performance indicators to track progress.- Biodiversity Management Plan Development: Crafting actionable strategies to mitigate negative impacts and foster positive contributions to nature.- Monitoring Plan Development: Establishing robust mechanisms to track the effectiveness of biodiversity initiatives.- Preparation of TNFD-Recommended Disclosures: Compiling information for transparent reporting in line with Taskforce on Nature-related Financial Disclosures guidelines.
This biodiversity strategy empowers the client to understand their direct and supply chain impacts on natural ecosystems. It also provides a practical action plan to enhance the interdependence between nature and business activities, complete with a robust monitoring framework.
This comprehensive suite of analyses and actions fully aligns with the CSRD directive's requirements for biodiversity protection and ecosystem restoration. Furthermore, as a result of this assessment, the client is equipped with science-based indicators and metrics ready for non-financial reporting, consistent with global standards.
The developed strategy successfully underwent an independent verification by E&Y auditors. This attestation confirmed its high substantive and operational quality.
