Greening the portfolios with the Investment Management
The funds that BNP Paribas Real Estate Investment Management sets up, manages or advises on incorporate assets or management principles that meet the expectations of institutional investors wanting to make their asset portfolios greener.
Long-term investment in fact requires positioning ahead of the curve, anticipating fundamental changes such as those connected to new building regulations on energy conservation and environmental impact, or changes in demand and in technology.
As regards to asset acquisition, the Investment Management business has created funds giving top priority to HQE-certified buildings (France's High Environmental Quality badge) in new-build properties, and to those with great potential for improvement relative to sustainability criteria in existing properties, in particular through the use of the "Sustainable Rating Tool" developed by BNP Paribas Real Estate Investment Services (see opposite).
