  • Acop Digest 2012 / 2013
    ACOP DIGEST 2012 / 2013 A Snapshot of RSPO Members’ Annual Communications of Progress DISCLAIMER EDITED BY: This material and accompanying data is based on submissions from RSPO members Communications Division, which has not been independently verified and is provided by the RSPO and authors RSPO Secretariat without warranty of any kind, either expressed or implied. By making use of this material you do so at your own risk and you accept that the author shall not be liable for any claims, liabilities, losses, damages, costs or expenses of any kind arising. CONCEPT & DESIGN: Data from this report can be explored interactively on the RSPO website: Catalyze Sustainability Communications www.rspo.org/en/acop_2012-2013 OPENING ADDRESS he RSPO is once again pleased to publish the RSPO ACOP Digest (RAD) prior to RT11 based upon the data collated from the Annual Communications T of Progress (ACOP) reports that were submitted by its members. There was a significant increase in report submissions in tandem with the increased number of members in the RSPO, thus continuing the ascending inclination of compliancy towards the requirement to submit the ACOP reports. For this year, as per the Code of Conduct, only Ordinary and Affiliate Members that joined RSPO before the first of June 2012 were obligated to submit their respective ACOP reports. Members from all seven stakeholder categories were required to submit their ACOP 2012/2013 reports with the questions varying for each category to appropriately reflect the actual activities, distinctive contributions and level of commitment of each organization towards sustainable palm oil. The Time-Bound Plan (TBP) has always been an essential aspect within the ACOP process which will enable us to gauge the commitment by key stakeholders towards 100 percent RSPO certified sustainable palm oil, providing an indication on the pace of the RSPO toward achieving our vision of transforming markets to make sustainable palm oil the norm.

  • The Green Tigers
    The Green Tigers Which Southeast Asian Companies Will Prosper in the New Age of Forest Conservation? UPDATE OCTOBER 2014 Which Southeast Asian companies will prosper in the new age of forest conservation? © DeanBirinyi / istockphoto.com THE GREEN TIGERS Which Southeast Asian companies will prosper in the new age of forest conservation? By Glenn Hurowitz Southeast Asia’s economies are roaring. The rise of the so-called “Asian tiger” economies has been one of the most profound developments in global business over the past half-century. But even as the region grows, the manner of its growth is imperiling its future prosperity. Too much of Asia’s growth has relied upon defor- estation and pollution. Instead of pursuing lasting development, many countries and companies in the region have favored “spreadsheet development” that prioritizes goosing national gross domestic prod- uct numbers at the expense of making a positive impact on the communities where it occurs. Southeast Asia is by no means unique in pursuing this model, but it is possibly the place where it is followed most energetically—and with the most visible consequences. Too many companies are still putting the region’s environment and economy at risk through continued deforestation and other irresponsible practices. But some countries and companies are choosing a different path. They are adapting to the revolutionized global market by evolving to ensure that their growth does not come at the expense of forests. These are the Green Tigers – and they are set to roar for decades to come. There is great urgency behind this corporate evolution: Deforestation for palm oil and paper plantations has turned the region into a tinderbox.

  • Bumitama Agri Ltd. MEDIUM RISK
    INITIATING COVERAGE 15 October 2014 Bumitama Agri Ltd. MEDIUM RISK Oil palm plantation ISIN: SG2E67980267| SGX: P8Z | Bloomberg: BAL:SP BUMITAMA AGRI LTD. MEDIUM RISK Summary Warding off Sustainability Risk This Chain Reaction Research (CRR) report analyzes the financial risk profile of Bumitama Agri Ltd. (BAL:SP), a rapidly growing palm oil company. We looked at sustainability risks associated with the group’s 204,000 hectare (ha) land bank in Kalimantan, Indonesia – an area that the company identifies as available for plantation development. Detailed analysis of 16 of the group’s 18 plantation subsidiaries shows that Bumitama has been involved in significant deforestation, peatland development and legal irregularities since the group entered the plantation business in 1998. Continuation of such practices places the group at serious risk of losing its two major customers. Wilmar International and Golden Agri-Resources (GAR) together purchase approximately 90 percent of Bumitama’s palm oil supply. As of early 2014, both companies have adopted stringent sourcing policies that disqualify third-party suppliers who engage in deforestation, peat development and social exploitation. In the months since, Bumitama has taken several steps that may mitigate some of the worst risks. In this report, CRR reviews how Bumitama accumulated its sustainability risk profile over the years, and assesses the potential financial consequences should the group fail to duly address its sustainability risk exposure. An earlier version of this report was sent to Bumitama Agri for review, and this final report integrates information from its response. Contested Land Bank: 41% At the core of our Sustainability Risk Assessment (SRA) is an analysis of how much of a company’s land bank may be “contested land” – i.e.
