Biodiversity Net Gain and the viability questioN
Based on a cross-sector roundtable
What’s inside
BNG has moved beyond compliance. Now it’s a viability question.
Two years into mandatory BNG, developers and land promoters are increasingly asking not what does BNG require?, but where does it create exposure, when does that risk become material, and how should it be managed?
Based on a cross-sector BNG Industry Forum roundtable, this whitepaper explores the issues organisations are encountering across land assembly, consenting, delivery, handover and long-term stewardship.

Understand how changing policy, offsite unit pricing and local requirements are affecting viability assumptions before sites are acquired.
Navigate LPA variability
Explore why different local targets, capacity and approaches need to be treated as appraisal variables, rather than case-by-case surprises.
Plan for the full 30 years
See why monitoring and long-term stewardship are emerging as one of BNG’s biggest unresolved viability risks.
Apply it to live sites
Use a practical five-point checklist to help land, technical and sustainability teams identify risk across current and prospective schemes.
Learn from the market, not just the regulation
This isn’t another guide to how BNG works. It captures the experiences and issues being discussed by organisations dealing with BNG in practice, bringing planning, ecology, commercial and monitoring challenges together through one lens: development viability.
The whitepaper comes directly from a BNG Industry Forum roundtable held under the Chatham House Rule.
