Sustainable Forestry

Forests provide essential goods and services to both local and global communities and markets. As a financial institution with business relationships across the forestry sector and within many countries that are key producers of forest products, Citi is connected with, and committed to, the efforts to sustain healthy forest ecosystems. We pay special attention to impacts on forests in our risk assessment process via our Sustainable Forestry Sector Standard, and we promote sustainable forestry projects through our businesses and Citi Foundation.

To promote sustainable finance in the forestry sector, Citi has a Sustainable Forestry Policy, including requirements for independent certification in certain operations and high-risk geographies.
