A very interesting company that came to my attention recently is Silva Tree. The purpose of Silva Tree is to improve and protect the environment, and they do this by offering a number of environmental related investments. The entire global economy is still recovering from the recession, and a lot of people have lost most of their savings with the wrong investments lately. Stocks will give good returns in the long run if you do it right, but they go up and down a lot in the short term and you can never be sure when you should be buying or selling. If you don’t have the heart for investing, then you can just leave your money sitting in interest accounts, but that isn’t going to give you huge returns. But with Silva Tree, you have the opportunity to not only make very high returns, but also do something very good for the environment at the same time. This makes it a very attractive for a lot of people.
According to Silva Tree’s website, their main investment project on offer right now (the timber investment plan) offers a guaranteed 15.1% return per annum over the course of 20 years. Making a steady high return year after year with traditional investments (like the stock market or currencies) is often difficult, and they tend to fluctuate a lot. You may be thinking this is a little too good to be true and how exactly those returns are ‘guaranteed’. It’s simple. The timber investment that Silva Tree provides allow you to take ownership of a large plot of land, with a high amount of trees per hectare. Timber on your land is harvested 4 times over the course of twenty years and is sold to an agreed buyer (the harvesting, processing and transportation can be done by a company of your choice). A company called World Paulownia LLC has already agreed to pay 275 USD for each cubed meter of timber, but you may be able to do even better. With a 15% ROI each year, if you get a $32,500 investment in an area of land, that will turn into almost $150,000 after twenty years.
So it seems to me that if you have an environmental conscience and you want a safe, high return, long term investment, then Silva Tree is ideal. Investments from Silva Tree will give you solid returns every five years without you even having to monitor it, which cannot be said for things like currencies or property, which can easily go down as well as up. Silva Tree offers very high investor safety and all their investments are heavily regulated. Silva Tree can be seen on the Better Business Bureau (they are rated A+ there) and you will find that they are very serious about abiding by all relevant laws and working with governments when necessary. Another thing to keep in mind is that the people behind Silva Tree that work to make the organization a success all have years of experience. There are three main directors of Silva Tree: Patrick Visser (business development), Maurice Sjerps (project management) and Keren Kats (project design and development).
