This assessment takes the form of an annual rating based on a comprehensive portfolio level survey of how a real estate fund owner or manager is performing in terms of building energy efficiency, environmental and social impact, and sustainable governance.

A cornerstone philosophy of GRESB is the idea that sustainable funds and portfolios are a safer and more valuable investment due, in part, to lowered operating and maintenance costs and the fact that market drivers are increasingly rewarding energy efficiency.
