However this is the least expensive option and is a 24X impact multiple on the Ensurance Premium cost! A full Ensurance Policy can always be added at a later date.

ENTRUST 2050

This Ensurance Policy protects $415,569 of annual RealValue of Natural Capital a cost of $31,452 (which is a 92% discount) from day one and PERMANENTLY protects the ecosystem and the benefits it provides at the end of the policy period in the year 2050 which is 26 years from now. This is a 13X impact multiple on the Ensurance Premium cost!

This is a 6X impact multiple on the Ensurance Premium cost!

ENTRUST T-ZERO

This Ensurance Policy protects $415,569 of annual RealValue of Natural Capital a cost of $367,200 (which is a 12% discount) from day one and PERMANENTLY protects the ecosystem and the benefits it provides NOW! This is a ∞X impact multiple on the Ensurance Premium cost!

Ecological Indicators

Over 250 ecological indicators are available to BASIN members. Our comprehensive approach includes data on ecosystem condition, characteristic, state, and integrity, alongside biodiversity, biocomplexity, ecosystem services, and climate data. These indicators provide a intelligence on the health and vitality of each project and the impact of the BASIN Protocol and help measure biodiversity uplift and ecological benefits.

Ensurance Policyholders get full claim on ecological data. Availability of specific indicators and metrics may vary by site and project.
