United Nations (UN) Net-Zero Asset Owner Alliance Comprising of Asset Owners with $9.5 Trillion AUM Issues Guidelines & Recommendations to Stop Deforestation Which is 2nd Largest Source of Greenhouse Gas Emissions (Largest Source is Fossil Fuels), Deforestation Drives Climate-Related Risks Including Droughts, Wildfires & Supply Chain Disruptions
19th June | Hong Kong
The United Nations (UN) Net-Zero Asset Owner Alliance comprising of asset owners with $9.5 trillion AUM has issued guidelines & recommendations to stop deforestation, which is the 2nd largest source of greenhouse gas emissions (largest source is fossil fuels). Deforestation drives climate-related risks including droughts, wildfires & supply chain disruptions. Announcement (18/6/25): “As deforestation rises rapidly up the global agenda, the USD 9.5 trillion Net-Zero Asset Owner Alliance (NZAOA) today releases Guidelines and Recommendations for Halting Deforestation. Highlighting the necessity for action and collaboration between investors, policymakers, companies, and data providers to tackle this issue effectively, the paper provides specific recommendations for each group. Investors are encouraged to evaluate their portfolio exposure to deforestation and linked human rights abuses, phase out deforestation and forest conversion risks by 2030, actively engage with companies, asset managers, and policymakers, and disclose their actions, risks, and progress using measurable data. Among other recommendations, the issues targeted calls for companies to eliminate deforestation from supply chains; for policymakers to implement mandatory reporting and phase out environmentally harmful subsidies; and for data providers to enhance transparency and translate data into metrics aligned with reporting frameworks. The issue is rapidly becoming a key policy focus of 2025 – with the COP30 presidency reiterating the COP28 consensus to call for enhanced efforts towards halting and reversing deforestation and forest degradation by 2030, and growing regulatory momentum including from the European Union’s (EU) Regulation on Deforestation-free products (EUDR). Greater emphasis on deforestation in disclosure standards from the ISSB and TNFD further heightens attention on the topic amongst companies and investors. Representing the second-largest source of annual greenhouse gas emissions, after fossil fuels, deforestation drives climate-related risks such as droughts, wildfires, and supply chain disruptions. It also poses further systemic economic risks, threatening to trigger irreversible ecological tipping points, disrupt value chains, and diminish carbon sinks – with forests currently absorbing one-third of global carbon emissions annually. Further, deforestation puts investors with portfolio exposure to forest-linked commodities – such as cocoa, beef, soy and palm oil – at financial risk from regulatory, market, and reputation-related shifts. Due to their longer-term investment horizons, asset owners – such as pension funds and insurers – are reliant on the long-term health and stability of economies and financial markets. Deforestation threatens both – and, with it, people’s access to insurance and retirement income. Asset owners are uniquely positioned to drive systemic change by aligning portfolios to net-zero targets and phasing out deforestation – with NZAOA members committed to reducing deforestation-linked risks by aligning their portfolios with net-zero targets.” More info below:
