BTG Pactual Timberland Investment Group has launched a $1.24 billion reforestation fund, the largest of its kind, focusing on Latin America for nature-based climate solutions. The fund combines commercial timber production with ecosystem restoration across degraded land. It aims to generate financial returns while restoring biodiversity, strengthening rural economies, and producing carbon removal credits. The fund is supported by Conservation International as Impact Advisor and reflects growing institutional demand for natural capital assets aligned with climate and biodiversity goals. The fund targets approximately 660,000 acres in Latin America, with half dedicated to native ecosystems and the rest to sustainably managed commercial forests. A significant portion of the activity focuses on Brazil’s Cerrado, one of the world’s most biodiverse and threatened ecosystems. Nearly 29 million trees have been planted across more than 64,000 acres, with over 53,000 acres under conservation and restoration efforts exceeding 50,000 acres.
