GaiaSicura is a UK-based licensed insurance broker specialising in bespoke insurance solutions for nature regeneration projects. The company works with specialist insurance markets to develop risk transfer mechanisms across the full lifecycle of nature projects, from design through establishment, offtake, and maintenance. Services span four client categories: project developers receive risk assessments, contract reviews, and comprehensive wrap-up insurance programmes; investors and credit buyers access coverage for non-delivery, counterparty risk, credit cancellation, buffer depletion, political risk, and green finance guarantees; third-party experts obtain professional indemnity insurance for errors and omissions; and nature-based solutions advisory services assist those seeking to utilise nature restoration for risk mitigation purposes such as flood control through beavers or coastal protection through mangroves.
