Sustainable finance becomes real when ambition is translated into investment decisions.
We are proud to see how sustainable finance frameworks are gaining traction across the Belgian building ecosystem.
A great example comes from the City of Ghent, whose green financing framework for its logistics real estate portfolio has received the highest possible score from an independent rating agency.
This achievement demonstrates how sustainability frameworks can help public and private actors access financing for future-proof buildings and accelerate the transition of the built environment.
We are particularly pleased that BGBC's EU Taxonomy Guidance for buildings in Belgium contributed to this journey by supporting the alignment of the framework with the European definition of sustainable activities.
This is exactly why BGBC develops practical tools and guidance: to help stakeholders across the value chain speak the same language, increase confidence in sustainable investments and turn sustainability objectives into concrete action.
Congratulations to the City of Ghent and all partners involved in this milestone.
The transition of our building stock will require collaboration, common frameworks and innovative financing solutions — and this is sustainable finance in action.
