Capabilities
What Darwin does for your fund
Screen your portfolio for nature exposure
Get a portfolio-wide picture of nature impacts, dependencies and risks, even with limited data. Identify which sectors, geographies, portfolio companies or assets carry the highest exposure.
Power your ESG due diligence all the way down from the value chain
Most nature tools stop at the asset level. Darwin goes further — also assessing nature risks through entire value chains, including upstream suppliers and sourcing patterns. Identify not only priority sites, but also the commodities and supply chain hotspots that drive the most exposure, and back your investment decisions with data that goes beyond sector proxies.
Quantify financial risk across your AUM
Calculate current financial exposure and future Value-at-Risk (VAR) for each asset: how much of your AUM is exposed to physical and transition risks linked to biodiversity loss, water scarcity, or tightening regulations.
Embed nature into value creation plans
Work with portfolio companies to set nature-related KPIs, model risk reduction scenarios, and track progress over time — turning engagement into measurable outcomes.
Comply with SFDR, 29LEC or TNFD
Aggregate individual portfolio company assessments into fund-level disclosures. Strengthen your LP narrative with decision-grade intelligence.
Why it matters
The case for acting now
depend heavily on at least one ecosystem service. Yet only 5% have set goals for nature. The gap between exposure and action is where financial risk accumulates.
The exposure-action gap is where risk hides.
For one of our PE fund clients (1bn AUM, 20 portfolio companies), just 2 companies drove ~50% of total portfolio nature impact. Targeted engagement is both feasible and high-leverage.
Nature risk is concentrated, not diffuse.
Darwin supports every stage of the investment lifecycle — from initial deal screening to exit-ready ESG reporting — in a single platform.
From screening to reporting.
“Tracking biodiversity impact rigorously requires more than good intentions — it demands the right infrastructure. Darwin provides exactly that: automated monitoring and evaluation of our key indicators, giving us a transparent, real-time view of our impact. It’s become a cornerstone of how we steer and report on our biodiversity action plan with the rigour our investors expect.”
Quentin Simon
Investment Director, Starquest
“Beyond the pleasure of working with the team, we value Darwin's 'one-stop-shop' approach, which brings together all the tools & methodologies needed to assess nature issues. From spatial screening (in due diligence) to biodiversity footprinting (for our portfolio assets), we now have the tools to manage our impacts more precisely and identify actionable levers.”
