GTIS Brazil Funds Top GRESB Sustainability Ranking in Latin America

NEW YORK, Oct. 15, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- GTIS Partners LP ("GTIS"), a leading real estate investment management firm with $4.7 billion in assets under management, is pleased to announce that its GTIS Brazil Real Estate Fund I has been ranked as the #1 most sustainable private equity real estate fund across Latin America and the Caribbean within its category in the 2025 Global Real Estate Sustainability Benchmark ("GRESB"), for the 10^th year, with 91 points out of 100. GTIS Brazil Real Estate Fund III secured second place, also with 91 points out of 100. This top-tier placement recognizes GTIS's commitment to integrating ESG principles across its portfolio through high-quality assets that deliver long-term value for its investors.

The GRESB assessment is the global standard for evaluating ESG performance in real estate, providing a rigorous, data-driven benchmark for investors and managers. GTIS has been participating in the survey since 2012, establishing a long history of transparency and continuous improvement in its sustainability practices.

While GTIS's Brazil funds have consistently ranked in the top 3 since it began participating in the survey in 2012, the US funds continue to advance its ESG goals each year, with the GTIS US Property Income Fund improving by seven points and the GTIS Qualified Opportunity Zone Fund improving by 13 points.

GTIS translates its ESG strategy into action through tangible investments and its focus on green certifications with 15 additional certifications achieved between 2024 and 2025. Another important initiative is the comprehensive technical building assessment that helps to identify targeted improvements that optimize energy and water efficiency. An example of this is an office building in Rio de Janeiro that achieved 35% energy savings over two years due to retrofitting its HVAC system.
