Document summary

Mindful that other micro and macroeconomic, fiscal and regulatory factors influence returns at listed property companies, the focus here is on the ESG risks and opportunities for the listed Hong Kong real estate sector. Awareness and management of ESG risk is a key business issue, going beyond the ’softer’ focus on corporate social responsibility as community investment, with which many players already feel comfortable. Responsible Research uses their Asian Sustainability Rating tool together with sector specific criteria to benchmark the sector, identify ESG leaders and laggards and analyse the practices placing them in these positions.
