KEY TAKEAWAYS:
- Sustainability in real estate is advancing rapidly and investors need to adapt in order to future-proof their assets. Future-proofed buildings are regarded as higher-quality assets by many tenants, who assess that the green asset of today will be a standard asset in a few years.
- Continuous ESG measurement helps ensure real value is being created.
- ESG measures are not standardised in real estate and to anticipate future norms investors need to partner with real estate advisers with deep experience and a record of innovation.
