Better Health for All
0
NEPI Rockcastle's core business of managing retail properties has no significant direct positive or negative health impact. The company's operations generate positive health externalities through significant environmental initiatives, including an 84% share of renewable electricity in total electricity in 2024 and a 25% reduction in Scope 1 and 2 emissions in 2024 compared to 2023.
1
The company has SBTi-aligned targets to reduce Scope 1 and 2 emissions by 80% by 2030 (from a 2019 baseline) and Scope 3 emissions by 25% (from a 2022 baseline).
2
The company also engages in scalable social and health education initiatives tailored to local community needs, as noted in its 2025 sustainability performance overview.
3
However, the company does not offer health-related products or services, nor does it collect or manage health data, making several KPIs not applicable.
Fair Money & Economic Opportunity
0
NEPI Rockcastle N.V. is a property owner and operator, not a financial institution. As such, the company does not offer lending, deposit, or consumer credit services, nor does it manage customer finance data.
1
Consequently, there is no relevant evidence in the provided articles to score any of the KPIs related to fair money and economic opportunity, which are designed for financial service providers. The articles focus on the company's financial performance, real estate portfolio, and environmental sustainability initiatives, with no specific data on financial inclusion, consumer lending practices, or financial literacy programs.
2
Fair Pay & Worker Respect
0
The provided articles do not contain specific, quantitative data points for NEPI Rockcastle (NRP.JSE) regarding fair pay and worker respect metrics such as living wage coverage, CEO to median pay ratio, collective bargaining share, safety incident rate, pay equity ratio, worker engagement score, turnover rate, labor violation incidents, insecure contract share, or health insurance coverage. While one article mentions NEPI Rockcastle as one of the JSE Top 40 companies that disclose gender pay gap data, it does not provide the actual quantitative data for the company.
1
Another article notes NEPI Rockcastle's EDGE Certification on Workplace Gender Equity, but this is a certification and not a specific pay equity ratio.
2
Therefore, no KPIs can be scored based on the available evidence.
Fair Trade & Ethical Sourcing
-40
NEPI Rockcastle's Supplier Code of Conduct, published in February 2025, states that all contracts include Anti-money laundering and Anti-corruption clauses, including international sanctions.
1
The Code also outlines expectations for suppliers to comply with laws regulating minimum working age, modern slavery, human trafficking, and non-discrimination.
2
However, the article does not provide a specific percentage of *all* supplier contracts that include these broader ethical-sourcing clauses, only explicitly stating coverage for AML/Anti-corruption. Without a comprehensive percentage, the evidence suggests that only a portion of contracts explicitly include enforceable ethical clauses as defined by the KPI, leading to a score of -80 for '≈15 % of supplier contracts include enforceable clauses' as the most appropriate tier given the limited explicit coverage.
Honest & Fair Business
0
No evidence available to assess NEPI Rockcastle N.V. on Honest & Fair Business.
Kind to Animals
0
NEPI Rockcastle N.V. is a real estate investment trust. The provided articles focus on its environmental, social, and governance (ESG) performance related to property management, energy efficiency, waste, and human rights in its supply chain. There is no evidence in the articles to suggest that the company is involved in activities such as product manufacturing, animal testing, animal agriculture, or the sourcing of animal-derived ingredients. Consequently, none of the KPIs under the 'Kind to Animals' value are applicable or have relevant data points in the provided information.
No War, No Weapons
0
The company's core business is real estate, and there is no evidence of revenue from arms or defense contracts, nor does it develop or sell dual-use technologies.
1

4

5
There is no evidence of operations in conflict-affected areas, exports requiring certification, or involvement in intelligence or surveillance activities.
