ISFC is pleased to announce that France Valley has joined the group

The International Sustainable Forestry Coalition (ISFC) is pleased to announce that France Valley has joined the group.

France Valley is an independent asset management company founded in 2013 that manages 4.5 billion euros in assets, including forests in ten countries: France, Germany, Romania, Ireland, Sweden, Finland, Latvia, Estonia, Slovakia and Lithuania.

As one of Europe's leading investors in natural capital, France Valley is notably the leading manager of forestry assets in France, which itself represents the largest market for forestry transactions in Europe (around €2 billion in annual transactions out of €5 billion in Europe). 

Arnaud Filhol, Managing Director of France Valley, said, "Joining the ISFC is in line with our long-standing commitment to sustainable forest investment. We look forward to contributing to ISFC initiatives that support global climate and biodiversity goals."


David Brand, Chairman of the ISFC, said, "France Valley will be a key contributor to the ISFC, bringing its experience of forest investment in many European forest markets. France Valley's experience in the European forestry sector will strengthen ISFC's representation in the region, whose influence is crucial in advancing global approaches to defining the natural capital asset class."
