Executive ESG management

The overall governance structure plays a pivotal role in providing leadership, vision and commitment, which is critical for ensuring that the company operates sustainably, ethically, and responsibly.

Our cross-functional board of directors oversees material ESG aspects, including climate change risks and opportunities. The board governance is made more effective through sub-committees such as the CSR and sustainability committee, nomination and remuneration committee, risk management committee, etc. The CSR and sustainability committee has been specifically delegated the direct advisory responsibility for the overall ESG vision, strategy and performance. The committee provides guidance to navigate the rapidly evolving ESG complexities faced by the real estate industry due to its dynamic nature.

We have adopted a three-tiered approach to ensure rigorous regulatory compliance, integrating digital tools, internal certificates and external audits. This robust system is designed to maintain a comprehensive record of compliance, provide management with regular status reports and facilitate independent assessments for continuous improvement.

Our ESG framework and multi-tiered assurance mechanism reflect our dedication to ethical action and full compliance, impacting key stakeholders such as banks and investors. We pride ourselves on 100% digital compliance reporting and adhere to statutory requirements for reporting related party transactions and cross-entity involvement, ensuring transparency at every level.
