real estate industry Dear reader,

A new edition of Market Insight is out – in both Danish and English. In the center of the magazine, you will find the latest edition of Market Update, where you can be updated on the commercial property market with current market figures and detailed market data.

One of the big themes in the property industry is ESG and sustainability. It has long been known that the construction and property industry has been among the largest emitters, as construction and buildings are estimated to account for approx. 40% of Denmark’s total CO2 emissions.

In Market Insight, we focus sharply on ESG and sustainability in the real estate industry. We have spoken to experts in the property industry, including the Sustainability Manager at NREP and partners at the architectural firm AART and Mangor & Nagel, who, among other things, advises on how sustainability can be brought into existing buildings and future construction. You can also read about a Danish property investor who has a particular focus on making the properties in their portfolio sustainable.

At the start of 2023, we have significantly expanded our project department. STAD Project has become part of the team in EDC Project Poul Erik Bech, so we have now created Denmark’s strongest project team. As before, our project department works only for our customers, and we are not involved in construction ourselves. In this edition, you can also read about several of the many exciting projects in which we are involved and where, among other things, sustainability is a pervasive theme.

Enjoy the reading!

Best regards, Poul

Erik Bech
