The International Business of Federated Hermes Successfully Decouples Carbon Emissions and Portfolio Growth
15 October 2020
The international business of Federated Hermes has significantly exceeded its industry-leading 2020 target to reduce absolute landlord-controlled carbon emissions by 40% against its 2006 baseline. The team has achieved these results primarily through collaborating with property managers, occupiers and sustainability consultant Carbon Intelligence over several years, along with the rollout of smart optimisation. This success across a portfolio of 175 directly managed properties, up from 105 in 2006, demonstrates how carbon emissions can be decoupled from portfolio growth. Importantly, efficiency savings have gone hand-in-hand with wellbeing improvements.
