Forestry Investment - Overview

Forestry investments are a proven asset class for both institutional and private investors. Forestry or timberland as an asset class is extremely diverse in its own right.

Trees and plants have many characteristics that lend themselves to an extremely wide range of uses, evidenced in the way communities throughout the world use wood and its by-products.

Forestry as an Asset Class

The combination of value in a naturally growing commodity and the underlying land provides investors with a low risk asset creating long term capital appreciation in a sustainable and environmental way. Negative correlation to other assets and low volatility provides an optimum route to diversify a portfolio and reduce risk. Demand for timber is expected to increase as both global population and incomes per capita both rise. Supply will continue to be under pressure as environmental constraints restrict harvesting and consumers increasingly demand timber from sustainable resources. Alternative uses for the land, including sporting, leisure and conservation are  likely to see land values rise over time.
