AFIAA Global raises GRESB rating to 88 points
AFIAA Global (hedged) has confirmed its progress regarding the GRESB Real Estate Benchmark: In 2026, it scored 88 points and was once again awarded 4 out of 5 possible stars. Since first taking part in the rating in 2023, the score has improved by a total of 11 points.
Improvements in three areas have contributed to achieving this year’s results:
- Improved data coverage: Thanks to the consistent and targeted efforts of our on-site asset managers, additional tenants, who each rent an entire building from us, have provided their energy, water and waste data. This expanded data coverage creates a reliable basis for measuring the sustainability performance of our portfolio. Robust measurements are becoming increasingly important and are essential for sustainability monitoring.
- Progress in risk management: In this area, the rating has risen significantly, from 73.7 to 90.7 points. By further developing our risk management, we have been able to better identify and assess both physical climate risks and transitory risks to our real estate portfolio. This represents a key step towards being able to mitigate risks at an early stage.
- More transparency in environmental management: We have consolidated existing documents and regulations into a new, more comprehensive environmental management system. This ensures that processes, responsibilities and measures are better structured and systematically documented.
This achievement encourages us to continue to consistently develop the sustainability of our portfolio. We would like to thank everyone involved for their commitment!
Further details of the rating can be found in the GRESB Real Estate Benchmark Report 2026.
