STORIES OF PROGRESS

Sustainability for All Stakeholders The Americas Asset Services ESG Advisory Team supported Blue Atlantic Partners (BAP), a multifamily real estate investment firm, in completing a GRI-aligned materiality assessment. This comprehensive evaluation aimed to identify the most material ESG topics for both BAP and its stakeholders. The insights gleaned from this assessment were instrumental in our team’s ability to shape BAP’s inaugural ESG policy, showcasing the firm’s commitment to sustainability practices and aligning with industry benchmarks. Additionally, the ESG Advisory Team prepared a score modeling for BAP’s inaugural GRESB submission, set for 2024. The analysis produced valuable results enabling us to identify quick-win opportunities for the firm to accomplish by year end to maximize their scoring potential for their subsequent submission. Beyond these initiatives, our support extended to BAP in responding to ESG-related due diligence questionnaires (DDQs) tailored for current and potential investors. The ESG Advisory Team’s work with BAP demonstrates a combined commitment to ESG considerations, which underscores the tangible and positive impact of our ESG advisory services.

Contributing to Health and Well-Being in São Paulo

The Birmann 32 Building in São Paulo, owned and operated by Faria Lima Prime Properties, was built on a plot of more than 145,300 sf. Its design is based on integration and interaction with the city. With the help of Cushman & Wakefield’s Project and Development Services (PDS) sustainability team, the project considered a wide range of strategies and practices that positively impact the health of occupants, such as the promotion of physical activity, improvements in indoor air quality, access to drinking water, breastfeeding spaces and inviting staircase design. These strategies made the building more attractive to tenants and investors concerned with health and well-being. The project obtained Fitwel certification for the Multi-tenant Base Building (MTBB) v2.1 typology and achieved the Two-Star level.
