We do not follow anyone else’s guidelines. We follow our own standards.
When it comes to ecological, ethical and socially compliant action, we don’t just jump on any bandwagon. We have developed our own vision of sustainability based on our high corporate values and we adhere to it at all times. Our investors, tenants and team members appreciate the fact that we don’t just aim for the minimum through this commitment, but go well beyond it.
Sustainability-related disclosures
In order to increase the transparency of financial offers and services, Regulation (EU) 2019/2088 of 27 November 2019 applies sustainability-related disclosure requirements ("Disclosure Regulation"). Accordingly, since March 2021, financial market participants have been obliged to disclose various sustainability information. These include the company and its products.
Our CO2 footprint
We bear responsibility. And that is why we are always on the lookout to identify potential for improvement in our group of companies. We see a careful database as the basis. Our Corporate Carbon Footprint (CCF) is a benchmark by which we measure ourselves.
Our annual CO2 emissions: 663 tonnes*
- Office space: 49.3t
- Heating consumption: 147,4t
- Power consumption: 96.2t
- Working distances: 208,1t
- Vehicle fleet: 128.0t
- Flights: 19.4t
- Train journeys: 14.4t

For us, sustainable and responsible action is a continuous process to which we are committed and which we are constantly driving forward. With full conviction.
Growing together: our German Investment Forest
The trees we plant have big goals: they should not only help the environment, but also the people who live in it. That's why we work with Treedom to work with NGOs and local communities to choose the right tree for the right place. We think in the medium and long term. Because we are not satisfied with simply planting trees: we want to see them grow.
