The Climate and Nature Innovation Lab is a team dedicated to advancing and producing innovative models, analytical tools and signals to help build an understanding of and manage exposure to Climate and Nature risks and opportunities.

Net Zero Transition and Biodiversity Indices
The ISS STOXX Net Zero Transition Indices are a next-generation, optimized set focused on net zero targets and real-world transition-aligned metrics, that encompass all industries included in the parent universe. The ISS STOXX Biodiversity Indices, meanwhile, enable capital allocation to companies that minimize their biodiversity footprint and help our world’s natural capital. Both suites integrate the most advanced data from ISS STOXX, which help address top-of-mind issues for the world’s leading investors.
The Natural Capital Research Institute was established in June 2024 as an independent research team dedicated to advancing the understanding of how nature affects businesses, and investment portfolios, while helping institutional investors incorporate nature-related considerations into their investment decision making process.
