Thinking sustainably and acting responsibly: this is particularly important to us when it comes to our directly held real estate. Read about the status of our sustainability measures in the new publication.
As a pension fund, we are responsible for the financial protection of our insured members during the third stage of their life, as well as in the event of disability and death. This requires a long-term sustainable return. At the same time, we have a responsibility towards the environment, society and future generations. That is why we also take environmental, social and governance (ESG) criteria into account when making investment decisions. We focus, in particular, on the asset classes that we can directly influence, such as our directly held real estate.
Profond’s real estate properties
Profond Investment Foundation manages the directly held properties of Profond with a market value of around 2.3 billion Swiss francs, corresponding to around 14 per cent of the total portfolio.
When making sustainability decisions, the investment foundation takes into account a long holding period and the entire life cycle of each individual real estate property. Targeted and sustainable renovations improve building insulation, facilitate the transition to renewable energies, and increase the efficiency of technical building systems.
