Lack of data is property leaders' top issue on reaching ESG goals

Global property professionals reveal the most impactful ESG initiatives.

Majority of property professionals worldwide, with 15% coming from Singapore, revealed that headwinds for reaching ESG goals is the lack of data, a CBRE survey showed.

According to the study,  such an issue is true amongst investors, who are focused on determining the most impactful cost benefit for their portfolio.

Almost 70% of respondents said there is an increased focus on ESG strategies in 2022 due to higher energy costs and government-imposed disclosure requirements.

Amongst their priority is reducing energy consumption. CBRE noted that investors and tenants are often willing to pay a premium for buildings with energy-efficient features.

More than 500 commercial real estate professionals globally were interviewed in the survey, with 75 are from Singapore.

The people you want to reach are already in this room.

Every quarter, SBR lands on the desks of the founders, CFOs, and directors running Asia's most consequential companies. Every day, they open our newsletter and read our website. It's a room that took twenty years to build — and it's the one most of our partners are trying to get into.

The good news is that the door is open. We work with companies on thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. The shape of the right partnership depends on what you're trying to do, which is why we'd rather start with a conversation than send a rate card.


If you have something this room should know about, tell us. We'll tell you honestly whether we can help, and how.

No rate cards until we understand the brief. It's a better use of everyone's time.
