APREA x EY Value Creation for Sustainability Roundtable

This roundtable, co-hosted by APREA and EY Singapore, will convene a curated group of approximately 25–30 senior industry leaders to exchange perspectives on how climate adaptation is translating into tangible business outcomes across the real estate value chain—from asset-level performance through to investment and transaction dynamics.

We would be honoured to have you participate as a featured panelist, contributing to a focused discussion covering: The Business Case for Climate Adaptation in Real Estate: Where Is the Payback?

• Asset-level delivery and resilience payback (Esther An, Chief sustainability officer, City Developments Limited) – which adaptation measures are delivering quantifiable outcomes today—for example, improvements in resilience and asset performance (e.g. flood protection, heat resilience) translating into reduced downtime, lower operating costs, or stronger leasing performance; and for existing versus new developments, how decisions are being made on what is worth investing in, and whether tenant expectations (comfort, wellbeing, usability) are translating into real commercial value
• Investment, pricing and exit outcomes (Joelle Chen, Head of Sustainability, Asia Pacific, LaSalle Investment Management) – how climate risks and adaptation are being factored into underwriting (capex, hold period, risk-adjusted returns), including who ultimately bears the cost of resilience investments; and whether this is reflected in real transactions—pricing differentials, buyer scrutiny, insurability constraints, and exit timelines—as well as early signals of market expectations
• Market reality and scaling the business case (Amandeep Bedi, Partner, Climate Change and Sustainability Services, Ernst & Young LLP) – where asset-level results and investment signals are not yet translating into a consistent, credible business case, and why this remains a challenge; and how organisations are strengthening the business case in practice—from better data and valuation approaches to clearer integration into investment and portfolio decision-making

The planned agenda will follow a structured yet interactive format:
