About the GRESB Assessment
GRESB assesses the sustainability performance of real assets across the globe. The assessment was established in 2009 primarily by major European pension funds which took the lead in Principles for Responsible Investment (PRI). The GRESB Real Estate Assessment is distinguished by its comprehensive evaluation of initiatives for sustainability of property companies, REITs and real estate funds.
Currently, 140 Investor Members use GRESB data for their investment decision-making and engagement with investees, and several institutions from Japan including Government Pension Investment Fund (GPIF) utilize GRESB Assessment results. In 2021, 1,520 listed or private real estate companies/funds participated in GRESB Real Estate Assessment.
