ICE Integrates NatureAlpha’s Nature and Biodiversity Data

Intercontinental Exchange, Inc., a leading global provider of technology and data, announced it is working with NatureAlpha, a provider of AI-driven nature and biodiversity risk analytics, to integrate NatureAlpha’s nature-related metrics into the ICE Climate Analytics Platform, which provides physical and transition climate risk metrics and analytics for fixed income and equity assets globally.

“Biodiversity loss is a consideration when analyzing climate and financial stability, and with the addition of NatureAlpha data, we are providing clients with the tools to help them manage climate and nature-related financial risks, supporting everything from trading strategies to reporting and regulatory compliance,” said Larry Lawrence, Head of ICE Climate. “Our collaboration with NatureAlpha allows us to deliver the depth, granularity, and biodiversity insights needed to meet these growing expectations and support more informed investment decisions.”

NatureAlpha’s platform, Geoverse 2.0, now accessible through the ICE Climate Analytics platform, provides granular biodiversity and nature risk insights across 8.5 million global asset locations. Through this integration, ICE Climate has mapped these metrics to its comprehensive universe of fixed income and equity instruments—including 1.7 million corporate bonds and 11,500 global equities.

ICE’s Climate Analytics Platform supports institutional investors with portfolio management, advanced multi-asset class dashboards, and real-time hazard monitoring. With monthly updates and experimental tools driven by client feedback, the platform continues to evolve as a comprehensive solution for climate-related financial analysis.

By working with NatureAlpha, ICE Climate is now able to unify spatial intelligence and nature exposure analytics within a single platform. This integration also supports alignment with emerging global frameworks such as the Taskforce on Nature-related Financial Disclosures (TNFD), helping clients meet growing expectations for transparency.

“Working with ICE augments NatureAlpha’s role as a provider of pioneering nature data and analytics, while helping to magnify the global reach and impact of our data, across all asset classes,” said Nick Hough-Robbins, CEO, NatureAlpha. “The integration of our nature and biodiversity data within ICE’s Climate Analytics platform will empower clients to understand and mitigate their natural world risk, as we strive towards a common goal, to equip organizations with the data necessary for them to consider the planet, when making investment, capital allocation and business-related decisions.”

This new nature-metrics offering is part of ICE’s broader climate data offering, which includes physical climate risk, transition risk, and social impact metrics. Together, these datasets can give clients a holistic view of climate risk across various asset classes and geographies.
