Benchmark your ESG Performance,
Identify Areas for Improvement
and Engage with Investors
Participate in the GRESB Assessments
GRESB assesses and benchmarks the Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) performance of real assets, providing standardized and validated data to the capital markets.
GRESB Assessments are guided by what investors and the industry consider to be material issues in the sustainability performance of real asset investments, and are aligned with international reporting frameworks.
By participating, you’ll have access to high-quality ESG data and powerful analytical tools to benchmark your ESG performance, identify areas for improvement and engage with your investors.
We recognize all participants completing the GRESB Assessments as Participant Members.
Benefits of participation
What you get from your participation
GRESB Scorecard
Provides you with an individual GRESB score, a breakdown of your ESG performance and an analysis of how your performance compares to your peers.
Benchmark Report
Gives an in-depth analysis of your sustainability performance and a detailed indicator-level comparison with peers. The report allows you to compare your performance to your peer group, identify issues and opportunities, and to make business decisions. Learn more.
Portfolio Analysis Tool
Allows you to compare your aggregated portfolio to a self-selected benchmark, based on region, property type and management style. This online tool provides added value for fund managers that participate with several entities by comparing the relative performance of each fund. Learn more.
Data Exporter
Provides access to all data points in the Assessments. The datasets are available for download in .csv and .xlsx format so that you can integrate the data more easily with your existing portfolio management systems and use in your own modeling. Learn more.
GRESB Advisory Bodies
Opportunity to sit on Advisory Boards, regional Benchmark Committees (where applicable) and to join Industry Working Groups to inform the future content of the GRESB Assessments.

The “Guidance” tab in the Assessment Portal provides you with clear blueprints for completing the Assessments and improving performance in the future. This guidance is also provided in the Assessment Reference Guides, available in downloadable PDF.

First year participants can submit the Assessment without providing GRESB Investor Members with the ability to request access to their results. This is referred to as a “Grace Period”.
