OCEAN INVESTMENT PROTOCOL - 2025 A multi-stakeholder plan to enable funding for the Sustainable Ocean Economy 2The Ocean Investment Protocol reflects the importance of scaling up and accelerating the transition to a Sustainable Ocean Economy, which we recognize as the use of ocean resources for economic growth, improved livelihoods and jobs while preserving the health of ocean ecosystems and associated services. This transition, underpinned by action across our respective disciplines and industries, is vital to achieving a healthy, prosperous and sustainable future for our global ocean. In the Ocean Investment Protocol, we recognize our individual and collective roles in setting a clear vision for the transition to a Sustainable Ocean Economy. To achieve this vision, a comprehensive foundation is needed for the ocean economy to transform into a Sustainable Ocean Economy. For the ocean economy to support the needs of a sustainable future, investment and finance for the ocean must also change. We, therefore, recognize the need for our financial ecosystem to evolve, to integrate nature into decision-making and to capture the opportunities presented by the Sustainable Ocean Economy at all levels — across financial and risk institutions, industry, governments and development finance. The Ocean Investment Protocol provides a foundation for this evolution, and seeks to grow connective tissue across these different stakeholder groups and their initiatives, resources and frameworks to foster a sustai-nable ocean economy. The audience-specific and cross-cutting recommendations of the Ocean Investment Protocol aim to capture the key interventions required for a global scaling up and acceleration of activity for the transition to a Sustai-nable Ocean Economy. The recommendations outlined in this Protocol support the critical actions needed from each stakeholder group to achieve the goals of the Paris Agreement, Kunming-Montreal Global Biodiversity Framework and the High Level Climate Champions’ Ocean Breakthroughs.

Once a powerful buffer against climate change, it is now absorbing carbon at an unsustainable rate, pushing us dangerously close to breaching a seventh planetary boundary — ocean acidification. This creeping crisis threatens marine life, disrupts climate stability and endangers billions of people who depend on the sea. The science is clear: without urgent intervention, we risk not only the health of our ocean but the prosperity of future generations. The transition to a Sustainable Ocean Economy is not an option — it is an imperative.Governments and policymakers must step up to support financial institutions. Banks, insurers and investors have rightly been expected to lead, but in an era of increasing regulatory complexity and an evolving geopo-litical landscape, they can no longer act alone. Without cl
