Who Will Own the Forest 4 - What Next?

After more than a decade of forestland sales from vertically integrated forestry firms to TIMOs and REITs, the separation of forest assets from mills is nearly complete in the U.S. Yet with foreign investors now joining the hunt for alternative assets, the amount of global capital chasing forestlands has pushed the search for investment-grade forests overseas, and to emerging non-timber values such as carbon and biofuels. What's next for the ever-evolving state of forestland investing? Are forestland returns sustainable or is there a bubble? Please join us for our fourth installment of our continuing discussion on the drivers, trends, and impacts of forestland investing and shifting forest ownership. There are other events, but only one "Who Will Own the Forest" Summit. This is the event you need to attend in 2008. These Summits bring investors and the forest sector together to discuss investment opportunities, risks, appraisal issues, emerging markets and conservation values.
