Assessment Instructions

Intent: What is the purpose of this indicator?

This indicator intends to assess the methods of disclosure undertaken by the entity. Disclosing sustainability actions and/or performance on a public website ensures strong accessibility to various stakeholders.

Input: How do I complete this indicator?

Select yes or no. If yes, disclose where the online information can be found.

Points are awarded if a specific, dedicated section of the website covers the entity/group’s involvement and efforts towards environmental, social, and governance issues.

Reporting level: Select the applicable reporting level. For most listed property companies and REITs this will be the entity (e.g., the listed/investable vehicle):

  • Entity: related specifically to the named entity, where entity is defined as the investable portfolio for which you are submitting an Assessment response.

  • Group: Related to the group of companies of which the participating entity forms a part.
