The Business Case for BiodiversityFor you to appropriately prioritise and resource your company’s biodiversity management

activities, you must first understand why biodiversity matters to your company.

We assist you to identify and articulate the business case for biodiversity. Some common

examples of a biodiversity business case include:

• Obtaining a licence to operate;

• Reputation management; and

• Reporting requirements.

Biodiversity Identification

and Measurement Identifying and measuring the biodiversity that your company interacts with will highlight

the nature and extent of your biodiversity related business risks and opportunities.

At Digby Wells we have an integrated team of fauna, flora, aquatic and wetland ecologists

that identify and measure the biodiversity associated with your land holdings and activities.

We use this information to discern the associated business risks and opportunities for your

operations.

Biodiversity Strategy DevelopmentA corporate biodiversity strategy frames the company’s biodiversity vision, objectives,

action plans, resource/capacity requirements, targets and key performance indicators

(KPIs).

We can assist you with the development and implementation of a biodiversity strategy.

Typically these include implementation of the mitigation hierarchy and the company’s

stance in relation to no-net-loss or net-positive-impact on biodiversity.

We are also experienced in the development of biodiversity action plans, which present

site-level strategies for the attainment of the company’s biodiversity goals.

Reporting and DisclosureBiodiversity disclosure is defined as the process of communicating biodiversity-related

information to stakeholders external to your organisation.

Transparency with respect to biodiversity performance assures stakeholders that

biodiversity related business risks and opportunities are being appropriately managed.

We identify, synthetise and communicate biodiversity information that resonates with the

value perspectives of your various stakeholders (e.g. shareholders, ratings agencies and

proxy advisors, non-governmental organisations and government).
