Sustainability Policy
EVORA Global (EVORA) is driven to combatting the negative impacts of climate change. Our overarching business purpose is ‘To accelerate the adoption of real asset sustainability and enhance the wellbeing of the planet and its people’. We are committed to environmental protection and to promoting sustainable practices both with our clients and within EVORA.
As a technology and consulting business working with global real asset investment clients, our greatest positive impact on the environment is achieved by supporting clients to improve their own sustainability performance. Through collaborative efforts and dedication, we strive to make a meaningful difference and contribute to a better built environment for all. Our team of passionate and highly skilled professionals share a common set of sustainability values (Inclusion, Client Focus, Innovation and Mastery), which drive our efforts.
Our key sustainability commitments set out below have been developed to reflect how we work to our purpose. We use these commitments to develop and progress our objectives and to drive continual improvement.

To support the above we explicitly commit to:

Continually improving our Environmental Management System (EMS) with the aim of enhancing our Sustainability performance. - EVORA’s Sustainability Policy will be reviewed on an annual basis and revised when necessary.
