Better Health for All

Deutsche EuroShop's core business is investing in and managing shopping centers.

While the company aims to create safe, accessible environments and promote social interaction, these are indirect effects and do not constitute direct health benefits from its principal goods or services, resulting in a neutral score for health impact core. The company does not offer health-related products or services, making price accessibility not applicable. Similarly, its business model does not directly involve serving vulnerable populations with health needs, nor does it carry health risks requiring specific disclosure, leading to neutral scores for vulnerable reach and risk transparency. While the company supported a COVID-19 vaccination campaign, its business operations are not directly relevant to health crisis response, resulting in a neutral score. The company's operations do not generate significant health externalities, nor do they directly involve mental health initiatives, preventative health measures, or healthcare education, leading to neutral scores for these KPIs. There is no specific data on user harm frequency or severity for visitors to score safety record, as the mention of 'no workplace accidents' pertains to employee safety, which is outside the scope of this value.

Fair Money & Economic Opportunity

Deutsche EuroShop is a real estate investment company that acquires, develops, and manages shopping centers. Its revenue is primarily derived from rental income. The 'Fair Money & Economic Opportunity' value and its associated KPIs are designed to assess companies involved in lending, insuring, moving, or storing money for consumers, focusing on aspects like pricing fairness, financial inclusion, and wealth-building outcomes through financial products. The provided articles detail the company's financial performance, corporate transactions (such as a capital increase

and green bond issuance for general corporate financing and sustainable projects ), and ESG policies related to its real estate operations. However, there is no evidence that Deutsche EuroShop offers consumer financial services, lending products, or deposit services. Therefore, all KPIs are omitted as they are not applicable to the company's core business activities, and no relevant data points were found to assess its performance against these metrics.

Fair Pay & Worker Respect

The company reported a CEO-to-employee pay ratio of 2:1.

It also reported zero workplace accidents and a 0% voluntary employee turnover rate in 2021.

No War, No Weapons

No specific quantitative data or direct evidence regarding DEQ.XETRA's involvement in arms manufacturing, military contracts, dual-use technology, sales to embargoed regimes, peacebuilding investments, or any other related activities was found in the provided articles.

The articles discuss general trends in European defense spending and EU export controls for dual-use goods, but do not link these to DEQ.XETRA's operations or policies.
