Abstract: This abstract discusses the increasing importance of Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) factors in the real estate industry in Asia and Malaysia, where many listed property companies have begun to adopt ESG practices. However, the effectiveness of these initiatives on company performance remains unclear. This problem statement aims to investigate the potential benefits of integrating ESG practices into the operations of listed real estate companies and to identify the specific ESG factors that are most important in driving performance. Previous studies have shown mixed results, and there is a need to investigate the specific ESG factors that are most important in driving the performance of listed real estate companies in Asia and Malaysia. While academic research has been supportive of the increased value of ESG in real estate investing, this research aims to examine major real estate challenges and topics such as climate change risk issues, energy efficiency, and decarbonization frameworks. The significance of ESG in real estate investment decision-making for real estate investors globally moving ahead has been established, notably around the topics of climate risk reduction, climate resilience, and zero-carbon initiatives.
