Developed with guidance from the BBP, we show our methods of adapting the assets we manage to become climate resilient and discuss practical urban form considerations for real estate investment managers.
In this report:
- Our Approach to Climate Resilience: We detail why we believe it is crucial to consider climate resilience in the context of real estate investing and our methods of managing physical climate risk.
- Embedding Climate Resilience: Each stage of the investment cycle requires unique climate resilience considerations. We discuss how we are considering climate resilience in strategy development, acquisitions, portfolio management, redevelopment & renovation, and disposal.
- Case Studies: See examples of conducting an ecological assessment for a residential asset in Valencia and real world climate risk impacts on an asset in Italy.
