Formula
I_total = Σ_i I_i, reported by conservation action type and ecosystem or biome typeApply the source-defined TNFD Recommendations method only within the disclosed location, ecosystem and value-chain boundary. TNFD Annex 2 metric A24.2 identifies a reportable monetary investment construct and expressly retains action-type and ecosystem-or-biome categorization. It is not equivalent to the shortlisted narrative GRI or ESRS action disclosures, nor to general community-investment expenditure.
Variables
| Symbol | Variable | Definition | Unit |
|---|---|---|---|
I_total | Total investment in additional conservation actions | Total monetary value of investments included in the reported additional-conservation-actions population during the reporting period. | monetary value |
I_i | Investment amount for action i | Monetary value of an included investment in an additional conservation action, assigned to its action type and ecosystem or biome type. | monetary value |

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.

Method disclosures required
Source-edition basis: Recommendations of the Taskforce on Nature-related Financial Disclosures, September 2023.
- State the currency or monetary denomination and the accounting or investment basis used for reported amounts.
- Describe the criteria used to classify an investment as an additional conservation action.
- Disclose the conservation action type and the ecosystem or biome type associated with each reported investment amount.
Record-specific limitations
- The source candidate specifies monetary value but does not specify a universal currency, accounting basis, or whether amounts are expenditures, commitments, or another investment basis.
- Amounts for ecosystems or biomes with materially different natural characteristics should remain separately dimensioned rather than being represented as a single undifferentiated location result.
- This is an Annex 2 optional additional metric, not an Annex 1 core global metric.
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.
