Join the voluntary TNFD framework
Taskforce on Nature-related Financial Disclosures
The Taskforce on Nature-related Financial Disclosures (TNFD) provides an international framework designed to help companies and financial institutions identify, assess, manage, and disclose their nature-related risks and opportunities.
It serves as a robust tool for driving organizational transformation by integrating biodiversity and nature-related considerations into economic and financial decision-making.
At Blooming, we support your initiatives by ensuring full alignment with the TNFD LEAP approach (Locate, Evaluate, Assess, Prepare).
Origins and objectives of the TNFD
Created in 2021, the TNFD builds on the model of the TCFD (climate) to make visible the links between nature and economic performance. Its goal: to help organizations identify their dependencies on ecosystems, measure their impacts, and translate them into financial risks and opportunities.
By placing biodiversity and natural resources at the heart of strategy, the TNFD provides a recognized international framework to guide and monitor ecological transition, while strengthening business resilience.
Principles and structure of the TNFD
The TNFD framework is structured around four pillars: Governance, Strategy, Risk Management, and Metrics & Targets.
It is supported by the LEAP methodology (Locate, Evaluate, Assess, Prepare), which guides organizations step by step to:
- Locate their interactions with nature,
- Evaluate dependencies and impacts,
- Assess risks and opportunities,
- Prepare for disclosure and reporting.
Why businesses and financial actors should adopt the TNFD
Aligning with the TNFD — or simply drawing inspiration from it — strengthens both voluntary and regulatory initiatives, such as compliance with the CSRD, which explicitly references the LEAP methodology.
Due to their structural similarities, the TNFD and SBTN frameworks complement each other, promoting a coherent understanding and implementation of nature-related challenges.
Blooming’s approach to TNFD implementation
Producing a TNFD-aligned report represents the final step of the LEAP approach, allowing you to communicate your nature strategy in a structured and credible way to your stakeholders.
However, such reporting is not mandatory. You may simply choose to rely on the TNFD guidelines and methodological resources to build your approach progressively.
Whatever your objective, Blooming supports you throughout your TNFD journey — particularly when conducting your biodiversity double materiality assessment. Our pragmatic approach focuses on robustness, efficiency, and alignment with your operational constraints.
Combining robustness and adaptability: aligning double materiality with the TNFD
During their double materiality assessments, many of our clients ask us to deepen biodiversity-related topics, which are often more complex to grasp.
Our methodology uses a range of tools to map impacts and dependencies across the entire value chain (upstream, downstream, and direct operations), evaluate them, and objectively prioritize key issues.
This approach is fully aligned with the TNFD, while also meeting CSRD requirements and enabling the development of a solid nature strategy.
FAQ
What is the link between TCFD and TNFD?
The TCFD (Taskforce on Climate-related Financial Disclosures) was created in 2015 to help companies and investors assess and disclose their climate-related risks.
The TNFD follows the same structure but applies it to nature and biodiversity. Both frameworks share the same four pillars (Governance, Strategy, Risk Management, Metrics & Targets), ensuring continuity between climate and nature within corporate strategies.
What does it mean to be a TNFD Adopter?
A TNFD Adopter is an organization that publicly commits to using the TNFD framework in its reporting and strategic decisions. In practical terms, this means integrating TNFD recommendations (particularly the LEAP methodology and the four pillars) into its nature-related risk and opportunity analyses. This commitment sends a strong signal to investors, partners, and stakeholders: the company places nature and biodiversity at the heart of its strategy, with transparency and credibility.
