What Darwin does for your impact fund
Power your ESG due diligence to back your investment claims
Assess avoided pressures and impacts at deal stage to answer the only question that matters for an impact fund: is this business really nature positive? Compare each target against a credible business-as-usual baseline using methodologies that survive LP, regulator, and auditor scrutiny — so your impact thesis isn't a narrative, it's evidence.
Identify nature KPIs and deploy nature-positive action plans during the holding period
Move beyond static reporting. Define science-based nature KPIs to track during the holding period, deploy a nature-positive roadmap with each portfolio company, and turn portfolio engagement into measurable value creation — not just compliance.
Zoom into the pressures that matter most for your thesis
Drill down into the specific pressures your portfolio is contributing to: water footprint (volumes withdrawn and consumed, quality degradation through pollutants), plastic footprint (tonnage produced, leakage into ecosystems), GHG emissions, land-use change, and chemical pollution — so you can pinpoint where the impact actually concentrates and act on it.
Report against nature-positive frameworks (TNFD, SBTN)
Generate disclosures aligned with TNFD, SBTN (Science Based Targets for Nature), SFDR Article 9, and Article 29 LEC. Build the methodology once and report across every framework your LPs and regulators expect — with a defensible audit trail.

Why it matters
The case for acting now
More than 500 organisations have committed to TNFD-aligned disclosures since launch — including over 130 financial institutions managing $17T+ in assets, making it the fastest-growing sustainability framework to date.
Nature-positive reporting is becoming the standard.
For one of our impact fund clients, just 2 portfolio companies drove ~50% of total nature impact. Targeted engagement is what unlocks credible nature-positive outcomes — and protects against greenwashing claims.
Impact is concentrated, not diffuse.
Biodiversity loss is driven by five interlinked pressures — climate change, land-use change, overexploitation, pollution, and invasive species. A credible nature-positive thesis assesses all of them, not a single proxy.
Real impact funds look beyond carbon.
“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.”
