Malaysia Forest Fund is a finance-focused organization established in June 2021 under the Ministry of Natural Resources and Environmental Sustainability. The private company is located in Malaysia. It supports forest conservation through the implementation of the national REDD Plus strategy, developing and operationalizing innovative, transparent financing solutions to promote sustainable forest management, reduce emissions from deforestation and forest degradation, and enhance carbon stock removals in line with climate commitments. The organization administers the Forest Conservation Certificate (FCC) protocol, a voluntary, non-market financial instrument designed to fund forest protection, restoration, sustainable management, and community engagement initiatives, emphasizing transparency, third-party verification, and robust safeguards aligned with sustainable development goals. It also provides national guidance on forest carbon markets to ensure consistency, prevent double counting of emission reductions, and support nationally determined contributions. The organization upholds REDD Plus safeguards addressing social, environmental, and governance principles to ensure positive impacts such as biodiversity conservation and improved livelihoods for forest-dependent communities. Its governance includes a board of trustees with policymakers, industry representatives, and NGOs, supported by specialized teams managing strategy, programs, and services, and it collaborates with government agencies, private entities, donors, and stakeholders.
