Annual financial report 2013

The Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) policy of Cofinimmo comes

under the responsibility of the Green Committee, which objective is to

continuously identify and assess all the factors contributing to sustain-

able development. This Committee is composed of ten people represent-

ing, on the one hand, the departments involved in the property manage-

ment of the Group’s portfolio, all business segments combined (Property

Management, Project Management, Property Services), and, on the other

hand, the legal, communication and human resources departments.

The Committee’s responsibilities include:

•

proposing specific, economically reasonable measures to improve

the environmental performances of the company, its portfolio and,

by extension, the spaces occupied by its tenants;

•

developing initiatives to better incorporate CSR into the Group’s

strategy;

•

ensuring that the Group complies with domestic and international

legal environmental requirements;

•

communicating the Group’s accomplishments to all stakeholders.

In 2013, Cofinimmo also appointed a full-time Environmental Manager. Her

task is to work on the ground to monitor the implementation of the Group’s

environmental strategy in all business segments in collaboration with the

operational teams.

Concrete examples of the application of the CSR policy can be found in

this Annual Financial Report, both in the descriptions of each segment and

in the following scoreboard.

CORPORATE SOCIAL

RESPONSIBILITY

As a major player in the real estate professions, Cofinimmo intends to behave as a responsible

and civil-minded company in relation to its physical environment and the communities within which

it operates, striving to go beyond the mere minimum or legal obligations.

Improving the living and working environments, reducing the ecological footprint, building in

a sustainable manner and optimising the use of spaces: those are the commitments of all of

Cofinimmo’s employees.

The Board of Directors supports them in the deployment of realistic and effective projects.
