Inmobiliare | September 29, 2022 |

Miranda Partners in its report called "The new Leaders and Laggards of ESG", indicates that Terrafina and Fibra Uno are at the forefront in terms of the development of ESG strategies within the real estate Fibras sector in the country.

“It is natural that some industries have more progress than others. If you try to compare them all with the same themes, there will be a bias towards those most exposed to the indicators. By focusing solely on process, we understand that companies that tick the list for ESG development are not necessarily applying the criteria in their day-to-day operations. Likewise, those that do not make the list may be doing great things in this area”, explained Marimar Torreblanca, CEO of Miranda Partners ESG.
