Dexus recognised by CDP as a leader in addressing climate change

Dexus's leadership in addressing climate change has been recognised by CDP, achieving a score of A- in the Financial Services activity group.

Dexus was in the top 20% of companies that reached leadership level and one of three Australian property companies achieving a score of A- or above from CDP. In 2021, more than 13,000 companies disclosed their environmental data through CDP.

David Yates, Executive General Manager, Sustainability said: “This latest recognition by CDP demonstrates our ongoing commitment to net zero emissions and building resilience across our property portfolio.

“We are committed to transitioning to a low carbon future through our accelerated net zero target, which will deliver strong climate action for our planet and enhance our customer proposition for smart, sustainable workplaces.”

Dexus is committed to the RE100 initiative, driving its business toward 100 per cent renewable energy by 2030. The group also undertakes comprehensive climate-related reporting in accordance with the Task Force on Climate-Related Disclosures (TCFD) recommendations.

Dexus has been recognised by other leading global benchmarks for its commitment to sustainability including the Dow Jones Sustainability Index and the Global Real Estate Sustainability Benchmark.

CDP is an investor-led disclosure framework, widely recognised as the gold standard of corporate environmental transparency and with significant support from the global investment community.
