Deforestation
Looking to understand exposure to deforestation within your portfolio? Frontierras services help identify exposure to deforestation within a global portfolio or potential investments.
The combined complexity of supply chains and challenges around obtaining asset location data, means it can be very difficult for companies or financial institutions to understand their deforestation exposure beyond self-reported questionnaires and sustainability reports.
Frontierra has extensive experience deriving evidence based data to determine deforestation exposure for compliance across supply chains and the potential risks to financial institutions that provide loans or investments.
Summary
Frontierras services help to analyse commodity compliance with zero-deforestation legislation across global value chains i.e palm oil.

European Union Deforestation Regulation (EUDR)
Comply with the EU regulation on deforestation free products using Frontierra’s expertise and specialised compliance service.
The new regulation requires that these commodities, as well as derived products sold on EU shelves, don’t come from land deforested or degraded after 31st December 2020.
Frontierra undertakes a satellite-based analysis of all plots of land identified in the sourcing locations database to determine forest at the baseline and deforestation or degradation after the baseline, assisting in the production of due diligence statements.
We strive to develop a solution that will interoperate with our clients existing systems and processes, and is scalable with decreasing costs per plot, by volume.
