Alternatives boutique Gresham House eyes international growth in forestry management

In a year that was characterised by wild market swings and global economic turmoil, alternative asset manager Gresham House forged ahead with ambitious growth plans. Its CEO, Tony Dalwood, says the next step will be to take the group’s forestry platform international.

By the end of 2020, a combination of new institutional clients, complementary acquisitions, and a surge in the UK forestry market drove assets under management to rise by over 40 per cent to GBP3.9 billion.

While Gresham House is currently the UK’s largest commercial forestry asset manager with more than 130,000 hectares of forests under management on behalf of investors, the asset manager’s ambition is not limited to Europe. 

Gresham House plc (LON:GHE) is a London Stock Exchange quoted specialist alternative asset manager offering funds, direct investment and tailored investment solutions, including co-investment, in public equity, private assets, forestry, new energy and housing.
