#72 Inger Ahaneku, Senior Vice President and Head of ESG at MARK

MARK, formally Meyer Bergman is a multi-platform investment manager with specialised strategies that run parallel to their closed-ended, value-add funds. As a vertically integrated real estate investment business, they have assets across multiple geographies and sectors, including last mile logistics, mixed-use, retail, offices and residential. At MARK Inger is responsible for driving ESG initiatives across the MARK corporate and investment platforms.

Prior to joining MARK, Inger worked at Polestar Development Management where she developed their ESG platform, including targets and objectives, and submission of BCorp certification. And prior to this she worked for Tishman Speyer in London, as EU Head of Sustainability and EU Head of Procurement.

I sat down with Inger to discuss a broad range of subjects, which covered some of the following topics:

* How she got into real estate

* Early career moves

* How she got into ESG

* ESG at the Fund + Asset level

* ESG reporting / standardisation

* Benchmarking ESG initiatives

 

Oh, and one last question - who are the People, what Property, and in which Place would Inger invest should she have £500m of capital at her disposal.
