This year's GRESB results have been announced, and once again, the results confirm that our funds have strong ESG performance! We have obtained four stars for Fund III and Fund IV, which is a positive outcome. Fund V has been officially rated for the first time and has obtained three stars. We see that GRESB's requirements for governance, documentation, and data-driven follow-up are increasing. These outcomes enable us to sharpen our focus and further advance our efforts. Our results are truly a great achievement and a cross-team effort!

We know that the school environment, both physical and psychological, is crucial to children's well-being. As active school property owners, our focus is to educate ourselves and to constantly improve our understanding and practices to enhance these environments. School creates lifelong memories, and as adults, we can shape children's futures. At Areim, we take bullying seriously. That is why we are a proud partner of Friends since 2021. Three children in every class will be bullied this school year. The adult world cannot let it continue. We must move forward now! Several European countries already have a national plan against bullying. It is time for Sweden to do the same. Therefore, we now urge politicians to take bullying seriously, ensuring that no child has to endure its lasting effects. Together we can stand up for the children. Sign Friends' petition at www.friends.se and support the call for a national anti-bullying plan in Sweden.

Hope to see you at Expo Real in Munich 7-9 October!
