Our core property investments are backed by best-in-class sustainability programs and a firm commitment to benchmarking key ESG attributes using industry-approved rating systems, such as Green Star, NABERS, and GRESB.
A key attribute of this asset class is the consistency of income generated by rents sourced from a highly diversified cohort of tenants. While capital growth is still evident, income growth typically provides a larger component of return growth from this asset class. This attribute allows strong diversification benefits which help to reduce overall portfolio risk.
