LIFE CYCLE MANAGEMENT URBAN INVESTMENT Yanlord seeks to address climate and environmental risks at the early stage of land acquisition and investment. Environmental considerations, including climate exposure and ecological factors relevant to each site, are assessed as part of the investment evaluation process, consistent with the Group’s climate risk management approach outlined earlier in this section. In addition, Yanlord has developed selected projects with the aim of enhancing ecological performance within urban environments, contributing to improved environmental quality and long‑term sustainability of urban land use. PLANNING AND CONSTRUCTION During the planning and construction phases, Yanlord places strong emphasis on incorporating green building features through well‑considered design and construction practices. The Group prioritises collaboration with suppliers and contractors who demonstrate a commitment to environmentally responsible practices and the use of sustainable materials. Partnerships with experienced industry participants further support Yanlord’s ability to deliver high‑quality developments that balance functionality, environmental performance, and durability. A core element of Yanlord’s approach is the integration of ecological architectural principles where feasible. This is particularly evident in landscape and site design, where natural features such as water bodies are incorporated into rainwater management and treatment systems. These measures contribute to improved water efficiency, reduction of surface runoff, and enhanced environmental aesthetics, while supporting effective management of construction waste and resource use. GREEN BUILDINGS GREEN BUILDING OPERATION AND TENANT ENGAGEMENT During the operational phase, Yanlord maintains ongoing engagement with tenants to promote awareness of environmental requirements and green building standards. Communication takes place through lease negotiations, contractual discussions, and operational interactions, ensuring tenants are informed of applicable national regulations, including fire safety, mechanical and electrical systems, ventilation standards, and relevant green building criteria such as LEED guidelines. Where applicable, environmental information and requirements are communicated in a clear and accessible manner to support tenant compliance and sustainable operations. In addition to regulatory alignment, green building practices related to waste reduction, water conservation, and resource efficiency are actively implemented across properties. Further details on these initiatives are set out in the section on Green Building Initiatives across Yanlord’s portfolio.
