Our focus areas
We have committed to become a restorative business. This means we will seek to put more back into society and the planet than we take out. We will aim to go beyond ‘net zero’ not just doing no harm but helping to restore nature, become climate positive and support a greener economy. We aim to achieve this by channeling the principles of responsible investment through everything we do. As an asset manager we will collaborate with our investors, occupiers and supply chain to deliver this ambition, focusing our attention on where we can contribute most through three key focus areas:

In doing this, we will ensure that equal focus is given to each of the three outcomes whilst indirectly contributing to the UN SDGs. To enable Savills IM to deliver the highest positive impacts, whilst reducing negative impacts from our business operations, we have categorised our impact as ‘contribution’ for six priority SDGs (SDG 7, 8, 11, 12, 13 and 15) and ‘alignment’ for three others (SDG 3, 4, and 5).

Integration
Integrating ESG into our investment management process ensures that ESG risks and opportunities are not siloed, but recognised and acted upon throughout our business, as well as communicated to investors.

Engagement
We engage regularly with our clients, occupiers, staff and community stakeholders to promote principles of responsible investment and to ensure alignment with best practice.
