PDF Responsible Property Investing - Committing and Engaging (254 KB | 13 pages)

The purpose of this toolkit is to provide guidance for interested investors and property fund and asset managers on how to commit to Responsible Property Investing (RPI) as an investment strategy, how to put into place governance and management structures that integrate RPI into corporate culture and practice and how to engage with other stakeholders in developing the field.

This brief toolkit is drawn from the experiences of various investors who have chosen to make RPI central to their business practice. We hope that the toolkit will help investors who are interested in RPI to develop the systems and processes to translate that interest into tangible results.
