Goal
The aim of the committee is to establish a unified view of ESG, increasing understanding of all three aspects, environmental, social and governance, and to promote robust standards of corporate governance that integrate all these aspects for non-listed real estate vehicles. This will help the industry more effectively integrate ESG factors into the real estate investment decision-making process.
Key objectives
- Emphasise importance of environmental measures, sustainability goals and performance, at both a vehicle and asset level.
- Provide best practice on the structure, policies and regulations that impact investments
- Increase understanding and awareness of corporate governance and social aspects that impact the industry
- Implement and promote common and workable standards of corporate governance for non-listed real estate vehicles
