Global Forestry Capital seeks strategic partner
Global Forestry Capital, a Luxembourg-based investment and advisory firm focused on sustainable forestry and forestry-related assets, is seeking a strategic partner for its new hedge fund launch.

“A strategic partner would be interesting to help the fund achieve economies of scale,” said Olgert Gorani, marketing associate.
