Standards

Good corporate governance is key to the success and profitability of your business. Corporate governance means the structure, processes, policies and laws that determine how an investment vehicle is managed and controlled.

Clear reporting is essential for maintaining good communications between investors and managers. The Reporting module sets the standard for the transparent investment vehicle and forms the backbone of the INREV Guidelines.

The Property Valuation module promotes best practices for valuation and aims to foster a common approach to the appraisal process. Estimates of market or fair value that follow these guidelines are based on building blocks that allow for clear and full disclosure.

Consistency in performance measurement is essential to achieving greater comparison. The module provides a standardised calculation methodology and allows investors to benchmark investment vehicles.

The INREV NAV improves transparency and comparability of performance across different types of investment vehicles by providing a standard for calculating NAV. 

The Fee & Expense Metrics help investors and managers to compare fees and cost structures and explain the calculation of TER and REER.

The Liquidity module promotes best practices and governance in the area of liquidity rights, to make subscription, redemption and pricing mechanisms more transparent. 

Up-to-date vehicle data is essential to increase transparency, reduce investment barriers and promote a mature and accessible investment branch. These standard requirements and best practices for data delivery align investors’ and managers’ interests worldwide.
