Top score – DIC Asset AG finishes ESG rating among the 10 best international real estate companies

 

  • Another significant year-on-year improvement of the ESG rating by
    Sustainalytics
  • Further ascent within the lead group of the world’s most sustainable real estate companies
  • Sustainability report to be published on 17 May 2023

 

Frankfurt am Main, 2 May 2023. DIC Asset AG (“DIC”), ISIN: DE000A1X3XX4, one of Germany’s leading listed property companies, once again finished the ESG rating of the internationally renowned analytics firm Sustainalytics with a top-ranking industry score in April 2023, improving by 2.3 points compared to the previous year’s reporting period. With an overall score of 6.9 (ESG Risk Rating), DIC has bolstered its lead position as it secured its place among the top 10 companies of the international real estate industry (placing tenth in a field of 1071) and among the diversified real estate companies (placing second out of a total of 162).

“Our sustainability topics run like a thread through our entire organisation and cover all levels and units of our real estate platform. Our employees are the overarching bracket, implementing the topics with enthusiasm and dedication. They are the ones who make it possible to reconcile the economic and environmental expectations of our stakeholders, and who make sustainability an integral part of our business success. On the strength of their commitment, we managed to enhance our lead position further and to ensure we constantly and reliably deliver top results,” said Sonja Wärntges, CEO of DIC, with pride.

Last year, DIC participated in the ESG rating process of Sustainalytics for the first time, finishing right off with a score of 9.2, which is excellent within the international real estate industry. In recognition of its performance, DIC was awarded the labels “ESG Industry Top rated” and “Region Top rated” by Sustainalytics in January 2023.

Sustainalytics measures the most important industry-specific ESG risks and the ways in which companies cope with these risks.

The next sustainability report of DIC will be released on 17 May 2023. It will include an update of DIC’s comprehensive ESG roadmap, and will report on the progress made en route to the company’s climate targets.
