IFACC is excited to announce a new signatory! Violet, a VERT Capital spinoff, is a startup led by Martha de Sá, CFA which operates as a fintech platform dedicated to accelerating the adoption of nature-based solutions in Brazil. Violet's model connects innovative environmental projects, forward-thinking companies, and impact-driven investors across five key areas: agroforestry & bioeconomy, conservation & restoration, pasture recovery, integrated systems, and sustainable livestock management. The company's activities range from credit underwriting to developing payment for environmental services (PES) projects and asset management. Martha participates actively in the Amazônia Viva Program, a partnership with Natura, VERT, and Funbio. This program focuses on financing sociobiodiversity supplier cooperatives in the Amazon region. We’re looking forward to working with Violet to achieve our collective goals! Welcome onboard! #IFACC #InnovativeFinance
IFACC Initiative
Atividades de organizações sem fins lucrativos
Scaling-up the commitment and implementation of financial mechanisms for deforestation- and conversion-free agriculture.
Sobre nós
IFACC is a collaborative initiative, launched in Glasgow in November 2021, by The Nature Conservancy (TNC), Tropical Forest Alliance (TFA) hosted by the World Economic Forum, and the United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP). The initiative brings together complementary capabilities, to scale up financial mechanisms such as farm loan products, farmland investment funds, corporate debt instruments and capital market offerings. To expedite progress on this front, there is an estimated need for as much as $30 billion in these sectors over the course of the decade, versus hundreds of millions available today. IFACC is working to accelerate financing in two ways: 1. IFACC unites leading banks, companies, investors, asset managers, to signal a collective commitment to lend, and invest more in the area of sustainable production. It also facilitates transparency on individual commitments from each signatory on their contribution towards expanding finance in the key sectors. 2. IFACC works with signatories to implement and scale up new finance mechanisms - including support on environmental and social management; connections to concessional capital groups and other capital providers for the longer-term and patient capital needed for these transitions; sharing insights about industry best practices, and leveraging data and studies on the business case and impacts. IFACC has been endorsed as a catalytic Initiative by the CEO Principals of the Glasgow Financial Alliance for Net Zero (GFANZ), the global coalition of leading financial institutions committed to accelerating the decarbonization of the economy, chaired by Mark Carney the UN Special Envoy on Climate Action and Finance and anchored in the UN’s Race to Zero campaign.

Earlier this month, in partnership with WWF-Brasil and Boston Consulting Group (BCG), we published a study that explores the importance of mobilising capital to scale the responsible expansion of crops and livestock in Brazil. The report highlights that without deforestation, Brazil could recover over 100 million hectares of degraded pastures to increase agricultural and livestock production by 2040. There is a US$120 billion finance gap – and this report calls for US$2 billion to be mobilised in catalytic capital to develop innovative financing mechanisms. Brazil can lead the way in not just ensuring its own food security, but in driving the transition to sustainable agriculture worldwide.

🌍 Neste Dia da Amazônia (05/09), é fundamental refletir sobre como o Brasil pode liderar a expansão agrícola responsável, recuperando mais de 40 milhões de hectares de pastagens degradadas até 2040 sem desmatar. O mais recente estudo do BCG, realizado em parceria com a WWF-Brasil e a IFACC Initiative, explora que para que isso se torne realidade, é crucial mobilizar US$ 2 bilhões em capital catalítico. Fabiana Soboll Reganati, project leader no BCG, traz no vídeo os principais insights do material.
