ESG SDDS Wiring-Guide

This indicator captures the total number of active lease contracts within the vehicle that include specific ESG-related clauses or requirements.
An ESG clause is any contractual provision addressing environmental, social, or governance practices. Examples include energy efficiency improvements, waste management, data sharing (e.g. energy or water consumption), use of sustainable materials, green building certification, or community use. Both mandatory (legally binding) and voluntary provisions may be counted. Managers should indicate whether reported clauses are mandatory or voluntary and apply this distinction consistently across the portfolio.

Each lease should be counted as one contract, regardless of the number of ESG clauses it contains. Subleases should be included only if they form part of the vehicle’s contractual arrangements.

Note 1: If no such leases exist, this should be stated explicitly to confirm active monitoring.
