A guide to ESG and impact investing in real estate
Real estate touches every aspect of our lives—from our homes and offices to the land our food is grown on—yet many investors still have questions about how ESG and impact investing fit into this complex asset class.

Our latest analyst note aims to demystify the sustainable investing landscape by exploring ESG-related risks and sustainable investing opportunities presented in private market real estate investments, across strategies and property sectors. Our analyst breaks down the sector's opaque terminology and provides concrete examples of risk and opportunity areas, including climate change adaptation, supply chain management and green buildings.

A message from RSM  
Address back-office challenges now to maximize value creation
For private equity firms, maximizing growth on an investment is a top priority and the value to be gained from an efficient and effective back-office function cannot be underestimated. Back-office functions are the backbone of any organization and sustaining high performance requires a focus on data, people, processes and technology strategies.

Never has there been a more pivotal time than now to address the strategy, structure and services provided by the back-office functions of a PE-owned portfolio company. Don't be fooled by the name, the back-office affects the whole organization.

From accounting to HR to IT, unlock outcomes to overcome back-office challenges with RSM's interactive experience.
