The BBP Acquisitions Sustainability Toolkit (AST) is a comprehensive tool providing commercial property owners with practical guidance on how to ensure sustainability risks and opportunities are reviewed as part of the acquisition process.   Within the AST, the Sustainability Investment Checklist is designed to guide commercial property owners, investors, and lenders through the due diligence process, ensuring all relevant sustainability aspects are considered. The checklist provides comprehensive guidance, and is flexibly designed to complement existing due diligence processes, aiding in prioritisation and sequencing of checks.   Swipe to learn how to use the Sustainability Investment Checklist, or find out more about the Acquisitions Sustainability Toolkit and its features here: https://lnkd.in/etDbfUmV

A staggering percentage of global asset managers now integrate Environmental, Social, and Governance (“ESG”) factors into their investment decisions. What is ESG?  Environmental factors encompass a company's approach to climate change, resource management, and pollution control.  Social factors assess labor practices, diversity and inclusion policies, and community engagement.  Governance factors evaluate a company's leadership structure, transparency, and ethical conduct. The increase in investor interest and regulatory oversight reflects a growing recognition that ESG considerations are no longer peripheral concerns but critical drivers of long-term corporate success. This trend is particularly impactful in Mergers and Acquisitions (“M&A”) activity, where companies are increasingly looking beyond traditional financial metrics to assess the long-term viability of potential targets. https://lnkd.in/d-9WNCB5
