About Us

Connecting Markets to Conservation

Our role in the environmental finance sector is to conserve and restore our world’s ecosystems by connecting high-impact conservation projects with responsible finance in the global marketplace.

Our Purpose

Lestari Capital connects markets to conservation: we finance outcomes on the ground through ethical and efficient mechanisms, to support the adaptation of more equitable market systems.

Through partnerships with corporates, we help develop and grow sources of demand for conservation projects. Our work ensures that corporate sustainability standards and certifications have verified impact while addressing a critical gap in long-term finance for natural ecosystem conservation and restoration.

We are piloting this approach in Indonesia by developing a portfolio of high-impact conservation projects that we have connected to financing from the commodities sector, with funding commitments for 25 years or longer.

Our first mechanism, the Sustainable Commodities Conservation Mechanism (SCCM) was launched in 2018 and can accommodate a blend of public and private capital, providing a flexible platform that can facilitate compliance with the requirements of existing or future standards for environmental finance.

Our Vision

Our vision is a world where no ecosystem is left stranded and where every natural area is recognized for its unique value.

We support collective efforts to weaken the market drivers of unsustainable land-use change, along with efforts to redefine market rewards for companies that actively help protect and restore vulnerable ecosystems.

By supporting a large-scale adaptation of market systems through our mechanisms, we aim to fundamentally change the cost and benefit of doing business for sectors that impact vulnerable ecosystems.

For corporate actors, this means mitigating and, where stakeholders demand it, compensating for past environmental impacts. For conservation partners, enables them to secure reliable finance to sustain their conservation projects. In doing this, we address two critical distortions in global markets, which are represented by each “pie piece” in the Lestari Capital logo.

Our Values

We are an advocate and change agent for ecosystems; including the communities that rely on them, and those working to protect them.

We show that equitable market mechanisms can deliver lasting conservation outcomes.

We seek ethical participation of the private sector in conservation.

We seek to foster a holistic understanding of land use from the market to the ground, rooted in transparency.

Our interdisciplinary background in conservation and finance leads us to recognize the importance of verified conservation outcomes.

Our work to promote efficient private sector investment in conservation does not, and never will, support or endorse “cut and pay” systems.

We acknowledge and defend the rights of the local communities that depend on our world’s ecosystems.

A uniquely interdisciplinary team of conservation, market and finance professionals.
