Capital Formation Services

Our mission is to enable capital to be raised and deployed at scale into agroforestry projects to generate financial returns for our investors, as well as social and environmental returns for people and nature, on an equal basis. We are working every day to make this asset class mainstream, as wind power has become over the last decade, because we believe this is the most credible and fastest way to bridge the funding gap in the space of climate change mitigation, biodiversity conservation and reduction of poverty in rural areas.

To achieve that we have built an interdisciplinary team which translates the needs of institutional investors into a language that can be understood and implemented by local operational teams. This team is composed of professionals and experts including investment specialists, lawyers, financial controllers, accountants and technical project supervisors with a forestry/agronomic background.

We are responsible for the origination and structuring of deals, always following rigorous and independent due diligence (legal, tax, financial, technical, social) and approvals processes. After an investment has been included in our portfolio, we strive to provide investors with clear and transparent operational and financial information, which is verified on a yearly basis by financial auditors and forestry/agriculture appraisers. To demonstrate our commitment to regenerative practices, we voluntary certify our projects under a standard that is selected on case by case basis (FSC, UTZ, organic, Gold standard etc.). Finally on the social front, we mandate social impact auditors that help us establish and track important impact objectives.
