History of Forestry, as an Asset
Class
• Timber and tree products have always been traded


   • Investment in forestry was always landowners


          • Investors are now replacing landowners
• Investor movement in the 80’s as TIMO’s arrived

      • Funding rapidly climbed to $1 Billion USD

            • Investment in ‘Green Funds’ increased
             in the 90’s due to concern in
                     - Declining natural resources
                     - Global warming
Why is
Forestry
Considered to be Low
Strong returns


  A safe haven in turbulent economic times


     Low correlation to traditional asset classes
$500 Million
- Institutions going into forestry investment


     - A stabilizing asset class


             Can be incorporated in a portfolio
             or as a stand alone

        TREES
        They just really love to grow!
Comprised of two main elements
            i) Agriculture/Commodity
           ii) The timber itself
          iii) The real estate

- Gain value and higher returns if allowed to grow

- If market conditions are not favourable ,no problem the
asset can remain in the ground to grow until prices rise
The Future of Sustainable Forestry
Investments
Renewable asset
Future demand will increase due to

          i) Population growth
         ii) GDP growth
1 Billion City Dwellers
   in China by 2030
-Timber demand is correlated to GDP per capita

    - GDP per capita is correlated to urbanization

       - South East Asia is forecast to have the
       highest global urbanization rates by 2025
- Plantations are the future

    No natural forests remaining if illegal logging
   continues within 40 years

         This creates the need for sustainable
        forestry plantations and investments
Due to international laws and organisations policing,
illegal logging is been reduced

    - The use of plantations will reduce this further
The Asia Renewable Resources Fund, addresses
investors need for;

                   Good returns
                   Low risk
                   A desire to apply their capital in a
                   socially responsible manner
