We are specialist natural capital advisors, building partnerships for nature recovery.

Our Formative Years 

Restoring Nature at Scale

Natural Asset Partners was formed by bringing together individuals from a diverse range of professions. Each uniquely integral to enabling a successful natural capital advisory firm. 

We unite ecological expertise and traditional environmental consulting with finance and investment strategy, alongside practical land management experience. By blending these skill sets and perspectives, we deliver a holistic and thorough approach to every project.
