Sino-Forest Corporation (Sino-Forest) (TSX: TRE) (Chinese: 嘉汉林业; pinyin: Jiāhàn Línyè) claimed at one time to be one of the leading commercial forest plantation operators in China. In 2011, the company was accused of fraud and found itself under investigation by the Royal Canadian Mounted Police and the Ontario Securities Commission. On March 30, 2012 Sino-Forest filed for bankruptcy protection in Canada. It also announced that the company would be sold or restructured, with the proceeds going to its creditors. On July 13, 2017, the OSC released its decision finding that Sino-Forest and four individuals, including former CEO Allen Chan, committed fraud.
It is not to be confused with China Forestry Holdings Ltd. (HK:0930) or the Chinese state-owned China Forestry Group Corporation (CFGC).
