Post by Currie & Brown

How can investors be sure their money is having a positive impact on the environment and society? And how can developers prove their projects are sustainable? Certification is part of the answer. It's a topic our Group Sustainability Director, Adam Mactavish, will explore when he joins a Sintali-hosted panel discussion during London Climate Action Week. Investors, lenders, developers and occupiers all want clearer evidence of sustainability. They need reliable ways to measure performance while still meeting business goals. This is where EDGE (Excellence in Design for Greater Efficiencies) can help. Developed by the International Finance Corporation (IFC), part of the World Bank Group, EDGE helps developers measure and improve the sustainability of their projects. It also gives investors a consistent way to assess environmental performance and impact. During the discussion, Adam will share insights into Currie & Brown's role in developing the cost and carbon data behind EDGE certification. He'll also explain how IFC will use this data to support investment decisions and measure sustainability outcomes. The panel will explore the future of certification and the growing role of data in sustainable finance. It will also examine how organisations are adapting to changing investor expectations. If you'd like to join the conversation, we'd be delighted to see you there. Register here: https://lnkd.in/eWcy99SV #LCAW2026 #Sustainability
