Hermes Real Estate

Hermes Real Estate operates across all the primary markets of retail, office and the industrial sectors. In each of the major markets Hermes has specialist investment managers with specific relevant expertise and market knowledge. This approach ensures that the performance of each portfolio benefits from the input and market insights of sector specialists, not just the central fund manager.

Hermes is one of the largest real estate managers in the UK, with in excess of £8.6 billion of gross assets under management (at 31 December 2008).

At Hermes, we believe that a responsible, sustainable approach to real estate investment, management and development is the only strategy which both protects and enhances the value of our assets. Thus, we ensure that RPI is fully integrated within all our activities. We are committed to our work with the Better Buildings Partnership and we value the positive benefits of membership, which is focused on action-based initiatives.

“We are delighted to be involved with the Better Building Partnership and to be working with other leading commercial property owners on a number of important initiatives which will ultimately lead to a reduction in London’s carbon footprint. Hermes Real Estate has a long established market leading Responsible Property Investment programme and we hope to be able to contribute the knowledge we have in this area to improve the sustainability profile of London’s building stock.” - Tatiana Bosteels, Head of RPI
