Sustainable investment is key to the future growth and development of MTVH. It is an integral part of our strategy, as well as enabling us to meet government and regulator targets on Energy Performance Certificates (EPC) and zero carbon emissions.
Delivering sustainability
1. Sustainable Reporting Standards (SRS)
MTVH is an early adopter of the Sustainable Reporting Standards (SRS) developed by the ESG Social Housing Working Group (led by impact measurement and management specialist, The Good Economy). SRS are based on a set of criteria and are designed as a sector-standard approach to Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) reporting. SRS will give clarity to cross-sector performance and help support investment decisions.

Sustainable homes and services
We want to work with banks, pension and insurance companies, and other investors who share our commitment to sustainability.
Ensuring that residents live in ‘safe, warm, dry’ homes in a sustainable way was recently demonstrated in December 2020 – MHT completed its first ESG Loan with BNP Paribas. This shows a clear commitment to reduce the CO2 emissions from our office estate, vehicle fleet, and the energy supply to the communal areas of our properties. Savings from meeting the targets will be reinvested with residents to alleviate fuel poverty.
