Deforestation: engaging to preserve the world’s “carbon sink”

NN Investment Partners publishes: ‘NN Investment Partners (NN IP) has signed the financial sector commitment letter on eliminating commodity-driven deforestation. The letter commits us to making best efforts to eliminate forest-risk agricultural commodity-driven deforestation activities at the companies in our investment portfolios and in our financing activities by 2025. We believe a sustained engagement and ongoing stewardship with forest-risk sectors and regulators is the most effective approach, our focus is on inclusion, not exclusion.’
