Established in 2009, the GRESB Real Estate Benchmark is used by financial markets to measure the ESG performance of listed property companies and private property funds. The Assessments evolve each year to reflect what investors and industry consider to be material issues in the sustainability performance of real estate investments.

“This is a historic moment for Aliro Group and AGIV,” said Daniel Wise, CEO of Aliro Group. “Achieving a Sector Leadership prize and the #1 ranking in our peer group for the first time is a testament to our ongoing commitment to remain at the forefront of the industry by delivering leading sustainability outcomes for our customers whilst creating high-quality, institutional-grade real estate for our investors. We are immensely proud of this achievement and will continue pushing the boundaries to set new sustainability standards.”

Oscar Zerbst, Asset Management & ESG Director at Aliro Group, added, “AGIV’s Sector Leadership prize and top ranking demonstrates the success of Aliro’s unique approach to ESG, which involves empowering all teams to understand Aliro’s ESG Strategy and work collaboratively to convert its goals into action. It also reflects the value of actively engaging with our tenant and investor customers, which helps us implement strategies that support their sustainability needs and aspirations. This recognition by GRESB energises us to keep innovating and enhancing our performance across the portfolio.”
