Global Real Estate Sustainability Benchmark (GRESB)

The Global Real Estate Sustainability Benchmark (GRESB) is an international organization that assesses and compares how well real estate assets—like office buildings, apartments, and shopping centers—manage environmental, social, and governance (ESG) factors. It gathers data from property owners and investors to evaluate efforts on energy efficiency, carbon reduction, community impact, and transparency. The goal is to promote sustainable practices in real estate, encouraging industry participants to improve their environmental performance, reduce risks, and meet increasingly strict regulations. GRESB’s benchmarks help investors make informed decisions aligned with sustainability goals.
