Timber Finance Carbon Capture & Storage Index

Timber Finance Carbon Capture & Storage Index

Since 2020, the forest and timber industry is at the beginning of a significant growth cycle. After years of low investment and lumber prices, the industry is now undergoing transformative changes: European and North American governments are supporting timber construction through major regulatory changes – institutional investors have rediscovered the timber value chain and industry innovation has produced Timber Skyscrapers and highway bridges. Timber is gaining appreciation as a building material, timber construction is booming, and with it the entire industry.

Additionally, the Paris Climate Agreement and the net-zero commitments of companies are increasing the relevance of the forestry and timber industry and creating attractive investment opportunities for investors. After all, timber is the “hidden champion” of sustainable finance and belongs in the portfolio of every climate-conscious investor.

Since existing Timber Indices have predominately focused on forests or the paper and packaging industry,Timber Finance has developed the Timber Finance Carbon Capture & Storage Index. The world’s first index of the modern forest and timber industry.

The index consists of 22 listed equities from Europe and North America.

Focus on carbon storage

The Timber Finance Carbon Capture & Storage Index represents the forest and timber industry in the USA, Canada, and Europe. The index focuses on the positive climate effect of using engineered timber in construction. It covers the entire Mass Timber value chain, from forest to frame and highlights the CO2 effect generated by Timber construction.

  • The index Universe consists of 1,600 companies and includes forestry, forest management, primary and secondary products, as well as the construction sector.
  • Innovative companies from the bioeconomy and engineered timber producers were integrated. Additionally, leading global construction companies with a dedicated timber construction strategy were included.
  • The companies in the Timber Finance Index make a positive contribution to the following SDGs (11, 12, 13, 15).
  • Pure play companies from the pulp, paper, packaging sectors, and other short-term Timber product producers were excluded.

Every 6 months, the Timber Finance Index is reviewed to ensure that all company information is up to date.

Risk notice

As a rule, the higher the risk (price fluctuations), the longer the investment period should be, and the higher the return opportunities. The value of the invested capital as well as the resulting income (e.g. distributions in connection with investment funds) are subject to fluctuations or can be completely eliminated. Investments in foreign currencies are subject to direct and indirect exchange rate fluctuations. Individual financial products are generally subject to higher risks.

Performance

A positive performance (performance) in the past is no guarantee for a positive performance in the future. TFM and its counterparties therefore cannot guarantee that the capital invested will maintain (or even increase) its value, and investors must be willing or able to accept any substantial losses or even total losses. When calculating performance, any fees and costs (e.g. commissions and costs charged on the subscription and redemption of fund units) levied on the purchase, holding or sale of the financial product are not taken into account.
