The Roadmap to Financing Deforestation-Free Commodities

June 2, 2018

This White Paper looks at why financial institutions globally are not taking sufficient action or are finding it more difficult to do so than envisaged, and recommends ways forward for the various groups concerned. The recommendations are targeted first at financial institutions and second at other stakeholders in the soft commodity value chain, namely those who can provide the enabling environment for financial institutions to act. The paper contains sections on the four biggest areas of challenge to financial institutions in this space.
