Almost 90% of real estate’s key decision-makers now factor a move towards a low-carbon economy into their investment strategies, according to the Urban Land Institute.
A recent ULI survey found 89% of those questioned bring transition risks to a low-carbon economy into their decision-making as decarbonisation moves up the agenda in investment strategy.
Some 60% of investor and manager respondents to the C Change survey said transition risks were “nearly always” or “often” affecting acquisition decisions, with 61% adding that this has resulted in acquisitions not going ahead and 54% having allocated assets for disposal due to the aforementioned risks.
