Cheyne believes that an overarching focus on ESG considerations is entirely aligned with our investment goals.
- Robust sustainability credentials are value-enhancing and risk-reducing
- Sustainable, energy-efficient buildings are more valuable to owners by supporting higher rents, lower vacancies and lower operating costs
ESG considerations are not merely a passive analysis but also the opportunity to effect positive change
-
Cheyne Real Estate is a key stakeholder in our investments, frequently serving as the sole lender on a real estate asset
-
This enables direct engagement with all new sponsors to drive the ESG agenda and address any deficiencies and opportunities to improve the asset’s sustainability credentials
-
This is particularly relevant in development, value-add and transitional financing
Green Building Credentials
Recognising the value enhancement of sustainability credentials, Cheyne works with our borrowers to evaluate and improve their approach.
We place a high emphasis on green building credentials, particularly BREEAM ratings, and undertake a CREEM alignment analysis to assess each asset's operational efficiency against net-zero benchmarks.
