The INREV Asset Level Index is a quarterly pan-European index measuring real estate market performance on an asset level across Europe. 

Realterm engaged Longevity Partners to assess the feasibility of implementing Nature-based Solutions (NbS) across a number of assets in the Netherlands, in response to climate risks including drought, flooding, and soil degradation. The study evaluated green infrastructure options specific to each site, incorporating legislative, technical, and ecological considerations. Based on this analysis, Longevity Partners developed tailored NbS recommendations and a practical design guide. Initial measures implemented include rainwater reuse systems and biodiversity enhancements such as birdhouses and bee boxes. The initiative supports Realterm’s ESG+R strategy by strengthening asset-level climate resilience and aligning with emerging regulatory frameworks.

The Aligning Real Estate Sustainability Indicators (ARESI) white paper aims to address existing ambiguities in real estate Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) within the European legislative framework, in order to unlock investment and drive decarbonisation of real estate. Robbie Epsom, EMEA Head of Sustainability at CBRE Investment Management, and Hugh Garnett, Investor Strategies Senior Specialist - Real Assets at IIGCC presented this industry proposal to enhance clarity and consistency in sustainability reporting.

The Index is wholly comprised of open end core commingled equity real estate funds that have a strategy to invest across pan Europe and across multiple sectors. Funds must comply with a strict eligibility criteria for four consecutive quarters in a row to be included in the index.
