Formula
I = Σ i_jApply the source-defined TNFD Recommendations method only within the disclosed location, ecosystem and value-chain boundary. TNFD Annex 2 Table 10 metric A21.1 identifies a reportable investment amount for taxonomy-defined nature-related solutions. It is a standalone optional additional metric rather than a core Annex 1 acceptance gate. No shortlisted metric has the same nature-solution taxonomy basis and investment construct.
Variables
| Symbol | Variable | Definition | Unit |
|---|---|---|---|
I | Investment in taxonomy-defined nature-related solutions | Total amount invested in qualifying nature-related solutions during the reporting period. | Dimensionless |
i_j | Qualifying investment amount | Amount invested in investment j that meets the stated recognized taxonomy definition. | Dimensionless |

Evidence and status sources
Sustopedia checked each record-specific claim directly against primary publisher material. Labels distinguish current measurement authority from future compatibility and corroborative, legal, edition, or method status context. Corroborative evidence can support a stated limitation but cannot establish the core measurement by itself.

Source-edition basis: Recommendations of the Taskforce on Nature-related Financial Disclosures, September 2023.
- Name the recognized government or regulatory green investment taxonomy applied.
- Describe the taxonomy criteria used to identify nature-related solutions.
- State the currency, accounting basis, and whether reported amounts are commitments, disbursements, capital deployed, or another investment basis.
- Describe the organizational and investment boundary included.
Record-specific limitations
- The metric is dependent on the scope and definitions of the recognized government or regulatory green investment taxonomy used.
- Amounts classified under different taxonomies may not be directly comparable.
- The source specifies an amount invested but does not prescribe a universal currency, accounting basis, or valuation method.
Interpret this metric with the stated reporting boundary, period convention, value shape, and unit. Results prepared with different boundaries or conventions may not be directly comparable.
Measurement evidence supports the core record-specific claims described above. Corroborative evidence can support limitations, while compatibility and status sources provide their separately labelled context. None of these cards by itself determines an organisation's legal applicability, filing readiness, assurance status, or compliance conclusion.
