Initiatives and Participation in Industry Groups

Signing the UN Global Compact

In 2020, Takara Leben (currently MIRARTH HOLDINGS) signed and registered as a participating company in the United Nations Global Compact^* proposed by the United Nations. We will continue our efforts to realize the ten principles of the United Nations Global Compact, which comprise the four areas of human rights, labor, environment, and anti-corruption.

* The United Nations Global Compact was proposed by then UN Secretary-General Kofi Annan in 1999 at the World Economic Forum in Davos and was launched in 2000.

GRESB

Takara Leben Real Estate Investment Corporation received a “2 Star” in the GRESB^* rating, a five-level rating based on the global ranking of the overall score, in the GRESB Real Estate Assessment conducted in FY2023.

The company also received a "Green Star" rating for the fifth consecutive year. The evaluation indicates that the company is an excellent participant in both the Management Component, which evaluates policies and organizational promotion systems for ESG promotion, and the Performance Component which evaluates environmental performance at owned properties and acquisition with tenants.

In addition, the company's ESG information disclosure efforts were highly evaluated in the GRESB disclosure evaluation, which measures the level of ESG information disclosure, and received the highest rating of “Level A.”

* GRESB: The name of the annual benchmark assessment that measures the environmental, social and governance (ESG) considerations of real estate companies and funds and the organization that administers the assessment. It was established in 2009 by a group of major European pension funds that led the Principles for Responsible Investment (PRI).

Signing the Principles for Financial Action for the 21st Century

MIRARTH Real Estate Advisory (formerly Takara PAG Real Estate Advisory) endorses the concept of the Principles for Financial Action Toward a Sustainable Society (the Principles for Financial Action for the 21st Century) and signed on to them in March 2022.

The Principles for Financial Action for the 21st Century were formulated in October 2011 by the Japanese Environmental Financial Action Principles Drafting Committee, a broad range of financial institutions, based on the recommendations of the Central Environmental Council of the Ministry of the Environment, as action guidelines for financial institutions to fulfill their responsibilities and roles necessary for the creation of a sustainable society.

The company aims to implement initiatives based on the seven principles set forth by the Principles for Financial Action for the 21st Century to help create a sustainable society.
