Today’s food systems generate 12 trillion dollars in hidden social, economic and environmental costs. Implementing five "food finance imperatives" would not only reduce these costs but help unlock 4.5 trillion dollars in new business opportunities every year. Mobilising smart capital for a more sustainable food system is key to COVID-19 (coronavirus) recovery, job creation, eliminating hunger, protecting nature and tackling climate change. There is no time to lose.
