Going Green with Leases

With building performance now being scrutinized like never before through enhanced sustainability reporting and pressure from shareholders and even regulators, building owners need to implement plans that reduce carbon emissions. And to really show progress towards net zero targets, they need to work in closer collaboration than ever with their tenants.  According to a study done by JLL, a new generation of green leases is emerging, one which promotes enhanced collaboration and offers tenants a myriad of opportunities to reduce operational costs while achieving truly sustainable workplaces.  Learn how to utilize green leases to attain superior sustainability performance.

Sustainable Financing for REITs

REITs are increasingly leveraging sustainable financing tools such as Sustainability-Linked Loans (SLLs) and Green Bonds to align their capital strategies with ESG objectives. SLLs incentivize sustainability improvements by linking loan terms to specific environmental or social performance targets, while Green Bonds fund projects like energy-efficient buildings and renewable energy installations. These financing mechanisms not only enhance REITs’ commitment to sustainability but also attract ESG-focused investors seeking impactful and responsible investment opportunities.
