Coros

We want to make an active and long-term contribution to climate and environmental protection. As a portfolio holder and real estate investor, we see it as one of our greatest responsibilities to continuously improve our portfolio in accordance with the Paris Climate Agreement and strive for a climate-neutral building stock through the use of sustainable materials and technologies wherever possible.

Therefore, our goal is to continuously drive energy efficiency improvements and to become carbon neutral within our corporate operations by 2023 and across our fund portfolio by 2040 or earlier.

Increasing environmental pollution and the associated climate change, the scarcity of resources, demographic developments and their economic and social impact are becoming more and more relevant for investment decisions. Therefore, in addition to the systematic and integrated consideration of ecological and social criteria, value-oriented and sustainable corporate management is essential in analysis and decision-making processes in the investment area.

Hence, we signed the “Principles for Responsible Investment” (PRI) and are aiming at Grade A from 2024 onwards.

At Coros we also see our responsibility in engaging with our partners and investors by conducting open dialogue and active stewardship and ownership. With this joint effort we want to achieve common goals. Following our responsible investment strategy, we communicate openly with stakeholders such as investors and business partners, tenants, service providers or communities and municipalities.

We are therefore planning to publish our first sustainability report for 2023. With the report, we provide our stakeholders and partners with detailed insights into the impacts of our business on the climate to support them in their decision-making processes on sustainable investments.

Diverse teams with diverse cultural, demographic and professional backgrounds can inspire each other – beyond their different expertise – and open up to new ways of thinking and acting. This significantly contributes to innovation, future viability and the development of new solutions.

At Coros, we are therefore living diversity in all dimensions (age structures, gender, educational backgrounds, employees working part-time, etc.) and want to continuously improve within those. One of the most important goals is increasing our share of women in the workforce.”

Our employees are our most important asset. In order to be productive and successful in the long term, we need a modern understanding of work and collaboration. Enthusiasm, curiosity and drive for ideas cannot be decreed from above, but are based on personal responsibility, exchange and motivation.

For the years to come we are therefore aiming at further growth by continuously promoting employee development and satisfaction. Our tools to achieve that are regular feedback analyses and a fast and effective implementation of the relevant measures for improvement.
