About us

“A tremendously innovative approach. This has not been done before so systematically.”

Jeffrey Sachs,
UN Advisor

Earth Security was founded in 2011 to track how planetary risk is repricing markets and to create insights on directing capital toward resilience.

The convergence of climate stress, resource scarcity, and ecosystem function collapse is repricing asset valuations, credit spreads, insurance premiums, and capital flows across global markets. Premiums on resilience are emerging as a result.

Earth Security exists to make this repricing visible, measurable and actionable for capital markets at scale.

Our story

Over the past decade, planetary risk has moved from a peripheral concern to a core pricing variable. Earth Security anticipated this convergence early, examining sovereign vulnerability, infrastructure exposure, and natural capital dependencies before these factors were embedded in mainstream financial analysis.


Our early Earth Security Index, developed between 2014 and 2017, quantified sovereign-level resource security thresholds and their investment implications across more than 120 indexes and 200 countries. It was an approach ahead of its time, and it directly prefigures the data infrastructure we are building today.

Through capital initiatives in water security, food systems, and coastal infrastructure, we have turned complex planetary risk evidence into actionable investment blueprints — convening investors, corporations, philanthropy, and government policymakers, and translating research into multi-million-dollar financing initiatives.

Our work builds on fifteen years of insights, learning, and institutional influence, making the repricing of planetary resilience visible across the investment decisions that matter.

Our partners

We work in partnership with companies, philanthropy, and governments using intelligence to catalyse strategic initiatives that demonstrate how global capital markets can drive impact on planetary resilience.

Global reach,
local connections

We work with private and public organisations to shape the understanding of planetary trends and future investment opportunities.

Alejandro Litovsky

Founder & CEO

Alejandro Litovsky founded Earth Security in 2011 on a clear conviction: as climate tipping points and resource constraints intensify, systemic risk would be repriced across sovereigns, real assets, and global capital markets — making resilience a defining frontier of long-term investment value.

Alejandro works at the intersection of institutional capital, systemic risk, and planetary systems, advising global corporations, asset managers, sovereign institutions, international organisations, and philanthropic actors on strategies that align capital with structural resilience outcomes.

He has pioneered frameworks for nature-based and resilience-linked investment, catalysing multi-million-dollar financing partnerships across sectors — from coastal protection and food systems to water security and energy transitions. His work translates macro-system disruption into investable architectures and capital pathways grounded in long-duration value creation.

His leadership has been recognised globally, including as a UBS Global Visionary, recipient of the BMW Foundation Global Leadership Award, and the London School of Economics’ Hobhouse Memorial Prize. His work continues to shape how markets, policymakers, and institutions understand and reprice the economics of a resilient planet.

Catalytic Partnership

Catalytic Partnership

The transition to planetary resilience will require not only capital allocation, but institutional innovation. New frameworks, convenings, and analytical tools are needed to bridge the gap between planetary resilience and capital markets.

Earth Security works with mission-aligned institutions to catalyse strategic initiatives that advance planetary resilience as a core financial variable — supporting public research, structured dialogues, and market-building efforts that accelerate the institutionalisation of resilience capital.

We invite mission-aligned partners to help shape the architecture of resilience capital.
