key challenges

government agencies face mounting infrastructure costs and climate mandates with constrained budgets and limited tools for funding ecosystem solutions.

infrastructure burden

aging gray infrastructure requires costly maintenance while climate impacts increase demand beyond design capacity.

disaster costs

post-disaster spending consumes budgets while doing nothing to address underlying risk drivers.

unfunded mandates

water quality, flood protection, and climate adaptation requirements often lack dedicated funding.

jurisdictional boundaries

natural systems cross boundaries, making coordinated watershed and landscape-scale action difficult.

how ensurance helps

fund natural infrastructure—wetlands, forests, floodplains—that provides public services at lower lifecycle cost

attract private capital to nature-based solutions through ensurance instruments

coordinate watershed-scale interventions across jurisdictions and ownerships

establish MRV systems that document cost savings and public benefits

create resilience corridors that reduce disaster costs and protect communities

use cases

real-world scenarios for government & public services

municipal watershed program

a city funds ensurance for source watershed forests, attracting private co-investment while reducing water treatment costs by 25%.

regional flood mitigation

a county partners with upstream landowners to fund floodplain restoration through ensurance, with downstream property owners as anchor investors.

state resilience strategy

a state leverages federal and philanthropic capital into ensurance syndicates funding fire and flood resilience at landscape scale.
