APREA x EY Value Creation for Sustainability Roundtable

The business case for climate adaptation in real estate: Where is the payback?

Climate risks are increasingly shaping real estate performance, investment strategies and asset values. However, a key question remains: Where is the tangible business case for climate adaptation and how is it translating into financial outcomes?

Join EY and the Asia Pacific Real Assets Association (APREA) for a roundtable convening a curated group of senior industry leaders to explore how adaptation measures are translating into measurable outcomes across the real estate value chain — from asset-level delivery through to investment and transaction decisions.

This discussion will focus on where the payback is emerging today and what is required to scale a credible and consistent business case across the market.

主要亮点：

■ Asset-level delivery and resilience payback: Practical insights on which adaptation measures are delivering quantifiable outcomes today, including impacts on asset performance, operating costs and leasing outcomes, across both existing assets and new developments.

■ Investment decisions and unlocking value from resilience investments: Perspectives on how organizations are assessing and prioritizing adaptation and resilience investments across portfolios, balancing upfront costs with long-term value creation, asset competitiveness and portfolio performance.

■ Market reality and scaling the business case: A candid discussion on where asset-level evidence and investment signals are not yet forming a consistent, credible business case and how organizations are addressing these gaps in practice.

■ Interactive roundtable with senior industry participants: Small-group exchange of emerging insights and sharing of practical experience across the value chain.

Program format:
The event will begin with a panel discussion featuring industry leaders from real estate investment, development and sustainability, exploring where climate adaptation is delivering measurable business value today.

This will be followed by a facilitated roundtable discussion, enabling participants to share perspectives and practical experiences on the opportunities, challenges and future outlook for strengthening the business case for climate adaptation across the real estate sector.
