Our understanding of ESG in residential development

ESG (Environment, Social, Governance) is a framework for assessment of corporate responsibility towards environment and society.

Silverline defines itself as a fund that promotes ESG, but does not have it as a goal. We use a broad interpretation of sustainability, monitoring investments in residential real estate and development projects to ensure they do not violate environmental or social goals. Our developments are intended to be of above average quality and to improve our environment that we live in. For these reasons, we have incorporated sustainability risk assessments into our investment process.

Our sustainability goals and commitments

Environment

Housing friendly for the environment and its owners

Residential development has significant impact on the environment. We aim to limit the impact of construction and subsequent day-to-day operations of our real estate on our environment. We want to deliver quality properties with low energy consumption.

  • Residential properties with PENB C ("economical") rating or better
  • Use of sustainable energy sources
  • Water retention in the landscape

Social

We build on fair interpersonal and social relationships

Housing is now unaffordable for some groups. Construction of new housing addresses this problem to a large extent. In all projects, we consult local communities to find optimal solutions. We ensure equal approach to all stakeholders and we only work with suppliers who guarantee the same.

  • Supporting local communities
  • Fair treatment of employees
  • Supporting talent and education
  • Equal opportunities

Governance

A company built on solid foundations

In line with our values of Integrity, Transparency and Cooperation, we manage our fund and business activities. We want investors, partners, employees and suppliers to see that we live these values. Silverline is a life-long project for its founders and we understand the imperative of responsible behaviour. We are building a company on solid foundations to strive for and later benefit from positive reputation in the market.

  • Responsible corporate governance
  • High degree of transparency towards investors and other stakeholders
  • Zero tolerance of illegal behaviour

More information can be found in our ESG strategy.

All our projects must be ranked as an "economical" energy class or better

Improving Energy and Thermal Efficiency

Improving Energy and Thermal Efficiency

Housing stock, not only in the Czech Republic, is a significant source of CO2 emissions, also due to high energy intensity of buildings. In our projects, we always optimise use of energy and heat sources and try to use renewable sources to ensure energy-efficient operations. Thermal insulation and quality materials are a matter of course.

  • Optimisation of heat and energy sources
  • CO2 emissions minimization
  • Insulation and heat loss optimization
Saving inputs and the circular economy

Saving inputs and the circular economy

The basis of efficiency and sustainability in development is the appropriate use of primary materials (steel, wood, bricks, etc.). We therefore try to recycle materials in our redevelopment projects whenever possible . This also includes careful handling of waste materials. 

  • Recycling materials in redevelopments
  • Minimization of waste materials put in landfills
Promoting biodiversity

Promoting biodiversity

Animals and greenery greatly improve the feeling of the environment in which we live. We take care to improve our coexistence with nature in our projects. For example, we build nesting places for animals or provide migration routes for natural movement of animals in the landscape.

  • Planting of trees
  • Minimization of projects in protected areas or in areas with endangered species
  • Ensuring migration routes for animals in our projects
Water retention in the landscape

Water retention in the landscape

Water is the basis of life on earth and there is a long-term loss of water in the landscape. We incorporate elements into our projects that help retain water in the landscape and efficient water management. We build retention basins to use grey water, efficient faucets, and for land, for example, we use water for irrigation.

  • Efficient water retention solutions
  • Efficient water spend solutions
Supporting local communities

Supporting local communities

We strive to support local communities and encourage their engagement. At the same time, we make sure that we have the best possible relationships between our neighbours and with our tenants. We therefore communicate regularly during construction with all the parties concerned and gather suggestions for improvement.

  • Financial support for local communities
  • Active engagement of neighbours during preparation of our development projects
Fair labour and employment relations

Fair labour and employment relations

Fairness to our employees and a safe, transparent working environment is key for us. We require our critical suppliers to ensure safe working conditions for their employees, and to prevent black labour. We require them to confirm their agreement by signing the Code of Conduct.

  • Code of Conduct with critical suppliers
  • OHS directive implemented on all construction sites
Promoting talent and education

Promoting talent and education

Thanks to the personal experience of the founders and the opportunities they have had from their youth and abroad, we see it as our mission to develop young talent in the Czech Republic. We support their development, education and hands-on experience to help shape future generations of entrepreneurs. We are a proud partner of, for example, the European Center for Career Educaion.

  • Providing internships for students
  • Participation in lectures and educational activities of universities
Equal opportunities

Equal opportunities

Providing equal opportunities regardless of gender, race or age is unconditional for us. Whether it's our employees, suppliers, tenants or buyers. We support a level playing field and the setting of clear and transparent conditions for evaluation.

  • Equal pay conditions between genders
  • Equal conditions for all races, age groups and members of LGBT+ community
Responsible corporate governance and ownership structure

Responsible corporate governance and ownership structure

Being a trusted partner for our investors and partners is the foundation on which we build. That is why we have written the principles and values on which we build our business in our Code of Ethics. We are not ashamed of our business and want to maximize level of transparency not only towards regulators and investors, but also towards all stakeholders.

  • Regular reporting
  • Control against greenwashing
  • Third party control and supervision
Zero tolerance of illegal conduct and strict compliance with AML

Zero tolerance of illegal conduct and strict compliance with AML

We emphasize trust both within the team and with external partners. We have zero tolerance for malpractice in all aspects of our business. We pay attention to ethical corporate governance in accordance with legislation and setting fair values. Strict adherence to all AML guidelines and measures is also unconditional.

  • Regular AML training
  • Multiple layers of control and supervision
  • Zero tolerance to any unethical practices
