BAKU, Azerbaijan, January 31. The European Bank for Reconstruction and Development (EBRD) has approved a new Real Estate Sector Strategy for 2025-2029, outlining its vision for fostering private-sector growth, sustainability, and resilience in the industry, Trend reports.
The strategy focuses on five key priorities: expanding high-quality housing and rental availability, supporting the green transition through net-zero initiatives, strengthening human capital with urban regeneration and accessibility, preparing for demographic shifts and crises, and enhancing capital markets with green financing solutions.
“This strategy marks a transformative shift in how we approach real estate investment,” said Vlaho Kojaković, EBRD’s Head of Real Estate. “We aim to drive economic growth while promoting social inclusion, sustainability, and resilience.”
