With ESG considerations impacting nearly every part of the investment and transaction landscape of current and future real estate markets, investors are starting to look past the E and are trying to understand how to quantify and measure their social impact. The increasing pressure from LPs and potential new regulations around the S are accelerating investors trying to establish their own definition and report systems, but it seems that no one has a conclusive answer to social return as of yet. How can the industry come together and align what the S really stands for, how it fits into existing strategies around the E and ways in which this can be measured and benchmarked?

This in-person club meeting will reunite GRI Retreat members to discuss ways to integrate ESG into real estate targets. Reserved for the number 1 and 2 Heads of Real Estate in significant organisations, spend time and benchmark considerations with peers, behind closed doors.

  • Standardising and making sense of the S
  • E - Broadening approaches & strategies to include social impact
  • S - Establishing standardised measurements, but who has the answer?
  • G - Data collection & analysis systems that can include the S?
  • ESG by Assets - Which ones, winners, which losers?
  • Inclusive Approaches - Can E and S go hand in hand?

Money Costs The Earth

As the twenty-first century further unfolds, the issues of climate change, the impact upon the biosphere, biodiversity loss, societal inequalities persistently increase. All this against the backdrop of technological advance, the growth of the culture of sustainability, the circular economy, Environmental Social Governance, green investment, productivity decline, and many others. This suggests a rather toxic paradox. Something must change in the immediate term as we rapidly burn the IPCC carbon budget.
