As real estate fund managers have become increasingly keen to provide suitable products to meet institutional investors’ demand for real estate impact investments, INREV’s ESG committee has taken steps to provide more clarity and consistency in this important area. 

With sustainability and climate resilience climbing ever higher on the real estate investor’s agenda, IQ magazine was delighted to have the chance to speak to the chair of INREV’s ESG Committee, Abigail Dean. Sustainability is also the main focus of her day job as Global Head of Strategic Insight at Nuveen Real Estate, which also has the over-arching aim of future-proofing the business’s strategy in the light of global megatrends.
