Abstract

This study presents a short bibliometric analysis of biodiversity finance, exposing a literature fragmented across researchers, institutions, and journals. Six focal areas emerge, with Conservation, Conservation Finance, and Ecosystem Finance prominent. Thematic emphasis revolves around biodiversity challenges and the inefficiency of financial mechanisms in addressing them. Our analysis reveals an exploitable gap in the lack of finance-led solutions. We advocate for recognising finance’s pivotal role in tackling biodiversity challenges, emphasising capital access facilitation and risk mitigation. Collaborative efforts between finance and other disciplines are crucial for driving positive change in biodiversity conservation and restoration.
