The brief

Through the development of the forthcoming HMG 25 Year Environment Plan, Defra has been exploring options to make investing in protecting and enhancing the natural environment more attractive for private sector investors, to supplement public funding.

Defra is interested in exploring the potential to create a blended, impact finance model which could: - Crowd-in additional private investment in natural capital protection and enhancement. - Provide capacity building support / technical assistance to projects that would have environmental impact and generate revenue - to stimulate a pipeline of such projects. - Provide below-market-rate and/or patient repayable finance for project implementation costs. - Help to further prove the concept and develop a track record of projects that can generate revenue through improving the natural environment.
