Native forest carbon for wholesale investors
For funds, family offices, trusts and private wholesale investors: structured access to New Zealand native forest carbon, built around your goals and offered on a wholesale basis.
A real asset in a growing market
New Zealand native forest carbon sits where a compliance carbon market, permanent native forest and real environmental outcomes meet. For wholesale investors, it offers exposure to a tangible, long-term asset backed by land and forest.
Where to from here
Whether you want to own a native forest asset or get expert help evaluating one, we can help.
Own a native forest asset
Take a position in native forest carbon by owning the source, through freehold or a forestry right. A permanent asset backed by real New Zealand land and forest.
Advisory and due diligence
Independent, expert support to evaluate and structure a native forest carbon investment, from carbon eligibility to legal and land review.
A compliance-backed unit
Native forest generates NZUs in the New Zealand ETS, a regulated compliance market, not an unregulated voluntary credit.
Permanent and real
Backed by permanent native forest on real New Zealand land, with long-term ETS obligations behind it. A tangible asset, not a paper instrument.
Optionality and supply
Owning the source gives you your own supply of units, to hold, use or sell as the market and your strategy evolve.
More than carbon
Genuine biodiversity, freshwater and land outcomes alongside the carbon, an asset with a story that stands up.

Questions
Answers for wholesale investors on structures, due diligence, permanence and reporting.
We work with wholesale investors, including funds, family offices and capital partners. Each arrangement is structured around your criteria and your own independent advice. We are happy to discuss your specific requirements and what a native forest carbon arrangement could look like.
Permanence is supported through land covenants, long-term management agreements and the permanence rules of the NZ ETS. We conduct due diligence on land tenure, establishment risk and ongoing forest management, and document it for your investment committee.
We provide advisory and due diligence support including carbon eligibility assessment, land structure review, risk analysis and documentation. We support your investment committee with technical and legal clarity, though you should rely on your own independent advice.
Yes. We can plan and deliver native forest establishment on land you own or acquire, handling origination, landowner relationships and ongoing management so you and your advisers can focus on the decision and the reporting.
New Zealand native forest projects generate NZUs as carbon is sequestered and verified in the NZ ETS. A Native Carbon NZU is an NZU from a project we have assessed against New Zealand's six voluntary mitigation principles. We manage measurement, documentation and delivery.
