More than a decade ago, environmental economists Mark Eigenraam and Carl Obst saw an opportunity to bring natural capital accounting into the decisions that shape our economy.
After decades at the forefront of environmental-economic accounting, they helped develop and apply the United Nations' System of Environmental-Economic Accounting (SEEA), the international standard for integrating environmental information with economic accounts.
With the standard established, Mark and Carl turned their attention to putting it into practice. In 2015, they founded IDEEA Group to help governments, businesses and investors apply natural capital accounting to policy, investment and long-term strategy.
Today, we work across sectors to integrate nature into economic and financial decision-making. Our work spans ecosystem accounts, environmental markets, nature strategy, TNFD readiness and digital solutions that make complex evidence more accessible, consistent and useful.
Everything we do is grounded in internationally recognised methods and shaped by practical experience, helping our clients apply robust evidence with confidence.
