We are delighted to announce an exclusive in-person masterclass on investing institutional capital in forestry and agriculture in emerging markets.

Pensions for Purpose and Astarte Capital Partners will host this informative session, with valuable insights on their experience of investing in the global south from the Environment Agency Pension Fund. This masterclass will focus on the critical alignment of institutional capital in the timber and agriculture sectors, bringing together asset owners, policymakers and industry leaders to share best practices, and discuss the challenges and opportunities in maximising the impact of investments in these vital areas.

Topics under discussion:

  • Strategic perspective: understanding themes where forestry and agriculture are critical.
  • Impact assessment: discover how the global south will be essential if we are to hit our net-zero targets.
  • Case studies: examine innovative investment models and their outcomes in the global south through real-world examples.
  • Stakeholder engagement: understand the importance of including local communities, governments and private entities in investment decisions to foster inclusive growth.

We look forward to welcoming you to an engaging session packed with stimulating discussions and valuable networking opportunities, followed by a post-networking lunch hosted at Pinsent Masons' to further our conversations.

Who should attend?

This event is open to asset owners such as pension fund trustees and in-house executives, independent investment advisers, professional trustees and consultants.
