What do we do?

The Greenplan Investor Advisory Panel (GIAP) has been formed to represent Greenplan Forest Investors. We aim to maximise the potential of the Greenplan forests in terms of value and returns, stakeholder relationships, and sustainability.

The idea of forming a GIAP was first mentioned at the Greenplan Forest Ltd AGM in 2018, by the forest manager, Matt Barton.

Following the AGM, Matt met with 2 investors (our current co-convenors), to develop the idea, who then called for volunteers through the Greenplan newsletter. The initial Panel was appointed in 2019 (see Who We Are).

Our first priority has been to consider our Role in relation to fellow investors, the Management Company, and the Supervisor. Both Greenplan Forestry Ltd and the Supervisor, Covenant Holdings, have welcomed our involvement and attended meetings to assist us with this.

The initial Greenplan Forests are nearing harvest. We aim to provide the independent voice of Investors, and act as a sounding board, with all the various parties involved in the “realisation of our assets”.

When we have sufficient funds, we hope to be able to share more information, and interesting articles related to Forestry, via a newsletter, as well as electronically. 

Communication will be key. We welcome your questions and comments, and can be contacted via
