Embedding sustainability within our core

We recognise the importance of embedding key global environmental and social considerations within the way we do business to respond to a rapidly changing world. Beyond managing risks, we leverage sustainability as an opportunity to enhance our resilience, provide better offerings to customers, and future-proof our business for the longer term. Our sustainability framework provides the overarching strategy that drives FLCT’s approach towards sustainability by focusing on three focus areas – Acting Progressively, Consuming Responsibly and Focusing on People.

We have established a sustainability roadmap with a clear action plan for FLCT to continue to lead the way and drive our sustainability performance1. This includes a goal for FLCT to achieve net-zero carbon status by 2050, with established targets that contribute towards our Sponsor’s Group-wide goals.

Our Sponsor’s Refreshed ESG goals:

  • Achieve net-zero carbon across Scopes 1, 2 and 3 by 2050.
  • Install 215 MW of renewable energy capacity on properties by 2030.
  • Deploy a group-wide climate risk analytics platform to identify, assess and manage climate-related risks by FY2024.
  • Have 100% by Gross Floor Area (“GFA”) of new development projects, and 85% of owned and asset-managed properties, to be either green-certified or have been submitted for green certification by 2030.
  • Engage 75% of suppliers by spend on our Responsible Sourcing Policy by FY2025.
  • Develop a framework to assess and prioritise biodiversity risks and opportunities by FY2025
