# Construction Lending

The **Construction Lending** aspect focuses on how lenders incorporate sustainability considerations into the design, construction, and major renovation phases of the financed assets.

Note that the indicators in this Aspect are currently not scored, as they are not applicable to all lenders. For benchmarking purposes, GRESB aims to develop a stand-alone Component to include additional construction / land development lending indicators.
