Bridging ESG data gaps for sustainable finance for social housing providers across Europe
As member of European Federation for Living (www.ef-l.eu) and dedicated participant of EFL’s Finance and Investment Group, RITTERWALD co-authored the report titled "Bridging ESG data gaps for sustainable finance for social housing providers across Europe".
The report is a must read for everyone involved in sustainable housing finance. The outcome of the surveys among housing associations and lenders show and explain the increasing urgency of reliable and comparable environmental data on carbon emissions, and the mutual relationship between lenders and borrowers in their decarbonisation efforts to align loan book and carbon emission reduction of the residential assets: it will not take much longer before self certified ESG reporting will be replaced by verified ESG reporting, following financial and non-financial global reporting standards. RITTERWALD is offering external assessment and limited assurance services.
The report serves as a comprehensive resource for social housing providers, offering insights into current trends, regulatory landscapes, and best practices in sustainable finance.
