Press release
Unibail-Rodamco-Westfield awarded ‘A’ rating by
CDP
For the seventh year in a row,
Unibail-Rodamco-Westfield (“URW”) has been awarded CDP’s top ‘A’
rating on Climate Change, in recognition of the clear and
transparent actions the company is taking under its Better Places
sustainability plan.
The announcement is the latest demonstrating the
increasing recognition of URW’s ESG leadership, which includes
moving from 70 up to 24 in leading sustainability research company
Corporate Knights Global 100 ranking, and Equileap naming URW as 75
in the world and 10 in France for gender equality.
The company has also been named by Time Magazine
as one of the 100 most sustainable companies in the world.
Sylvain Montcouquiol, Chief Resources
and Sustainability Officer at URW, commented: “We are
delighted to be named in CDP’s ‘A’ list for the seventh consecutive
year, continuing the recognition of the progress of our
industry-leading Better Places plan, and in particular reinforcing
our climate action and performance.”
Among many milestones in the last year, URW has
now achieved a -42%1 reduction in carbon emissions from
Scopes 1, 2 & 3, reduced energy intensity by -37%2
and begun the rollout of its Better Places Certification.
The certification is the first sustainable
standard for shopping centres covering all environmental and social
dimensions and has been rolled out to 14 assets representing around
30% of its European retail portfolio, ahead of its target to
certify 10 assets by the end of 2024.

Universal Registration Document to be released in March 2025, and
