About Us

Natural is a Canadian environmental and social (E&S) boutique consulting firm that delivers world-class services to EP banks, development finance institutions, export credit agencies, and multilateral development banks.

From concept to completion, we provide superior environmental and social (E&S) due diligence (ESDD), long-term monitoring (ESLTM), capacity-building (ESCB) services, and specialized environmental- and biodiversity-related studies for internationally funded category A and B+ projects.

While we focus on agrifood, forestry, renewable energy, mining, infrastructure, and sustainable financing, our multi-sector expertise allows us to easily adapt to other sectors and jurisdictions as we bring to the table comprehensive knowledge of key E&S frameworks and global standards, such as the IFC Performance Standards (IFC PS), the WBG Environmental and Social Standards (ESS), the IDB Invest Environmental and Social Performance Standards (ESPS), the OECD Common Approaches, the Equator Principles (EP4), and EDFIs' practices. 

Participating as independent environmental and social consultants (IESC) on behalf of senior lenders, Natural is where nature meets strategy!
