2021 The Green Building Council Europe (GBC) recently published its 2020 rankings of buildings that have received the coveted LEED PLATINUM certification in Europe. DeA Capital Real Estate SGR is very proud to report third place goes to a property it redeveloped and promoted.

The property is located in Rome at Via dell'Arte 25 and is owned by a reserved real estate fund managed by DeA Capital Real Estate SGR. It is the only Italian property included in the GBC rankings. Arte 25 has been managed by DeA Capital since 2008. It is a multi-tenant office complex made up of three separate buildings with an area of about 30,828 square meters. It is leased to major companies with diversified tenancy and has stable long-term cash flows.

It has undergone extensive structural and functional renovations in recent years, and all phases of the work have been carried out with a thorough focus on sustainability, using innovative techniques, with a view to reducing environmental impact and the circular economy.

DeA Capital Real Estate SGR has long made ESG factors a guiding criterion for its investments by subscribing to the PRI, the United Nations Principles for Responsible Investment, and introducing its own internal sustainability risk governance and social responsibility at all levels of management, administration and control.
