The sustainable link between property and capital

ESG at Catella

Catella consists of several entities across Europe with different focus areas within real estate and property investment. To us, sustainability is not only about responsibility, it is a strategic priority that will ensure long-term profitability. It supports risk mitigation as much as it helps us meet the growing expectations of society, customers, clients, investors and of course our colleagues.

We believe that integrating sustainability into our everyday business offering is essential for our success and that of our customers and clients. At Catella, we have the goal to reduce our climate impact on property development and asset management. Additionally, we consider the environmental impact of properties through our transaction advisory. Therefore, we continue to evolve our products for a better environment and reduce, adapt and decrease our environmental impact. Strengthening our employees and local communities are vital social responsibilities for our business to thrive. Most importantly, we continue to build our group and the products we offer based on environmental, social and governance aspects and thus grow and integrate sustainability into our business offering and processes.

Environmental

At Catella, we have the goal to reduce our climate impact on property development and asset management.

Social

Our employees are our greatest resource; we have the obligation to ensure the well-being of our colleagues as well as their development.

Governance

Good governance, compliance, and risk management are an integral part of a transparent and sustainable approach, as well as being the foundation of good business ethics.

Catella Group Sustainability Policy

Our sustainability policy informs and describes both our stance on ESG and our strategic approach. Furthermore aim to conduct our business as responsibly as possible from an environmental, social and governance perspective.

Catella Group consists of several entities divided into three business segments, Investment Management, Principal Investments and Corporate Finance. Within these we offer a variety of products and services that take sustainability into consideration and align with our ESG strategy.

It is our ambition to drive positive change and impact for our stakeholders, such as our employees, investors, owners, clients, partners as well as the society we are part of.

EU Taxonomy

Investors are increasingly allocating capital to sustainability-related investments. As the ESG market grows, investors request standardization, comparability and transparency increases. The EU Taxonomy enables the allocation of capital to support the transition to a low-carbon, resilient and resource efficient economy over time. Overall, it provides a “gold standard” for the classification of environmentally sustainable economic activities and should therefore also reduce the risk greenwashing.
