Recently, Yuexiu Property (00123.HK) was successfully included in the SynTao Green Finance's Steady Progress, Long-Term Success: China Corporate ESG Leaders Report 2026 based on its achievements in sustainable development governance, and was awarded the “ESG Leader” badge. In this ESG rating, the company received an “A” rating, with its composite score ranking first among the 159 real estate firms evaluated nationwide. This marks recognition by the capital markets and professional institutions of the company’s achievements in sustainability governance and long-term value creation.
As a leading authority in the field of responsible investment and ESG research in China, this year’s selection process achieved full coverage of A and H shares for the first time by incorporating Hong Kong-listed companies into the evaluation system, expanding the scope of evaluation to 5,457 A-share companies and 821 Hong Kong-listed companies. The eligibility criteria were stringent: companies had to have been included in the SynTao Green Finance STαR ESG Database for two consecutive years, have no major ESG risk incidents in the past three years, and hold an ESG rating of A- or higher. Ultimately, only 125 A-share companies (2.26% of the total) and 62 Hong Kong-listed companies (2.21% of the total) were selected. The selected companies possess both a solid foundation in ESG management and proven results in practice, playing a leading role in their industries in terms of risk response, governance improvement, green transition, and building long-term resilience.
This “Leaders” selection is based on the SynTao Green Finance Listed Company ESG Rating, one of the first localized ESG rating systems for listed companies in China and the only ESG rating for Chinese listed companies adopted by Bloomberg. It is widely recognized for its industry authority and credibility. Yuexiu Property received an “A” rating and ranked first in the real estate sector, reflecting the recognition by authoritative domestic ESG rating agencies of the company’s achievements in ESG governance.
