Prepared by Crown’s in-house team, Rooted in Action details how Crown integrates the most relevant environmental, operational, and social considerations into its investment and management platform.  Rather than treating these topics as external obligations, Crown deliberately focuses on those that materially support asset value, incorporating them as core inputs to Crown’s “bottom-up” strategy across underwriting, capital planning, and day-to-day operations.

“For a topic where noise has generally outpaced substance, our vertically integrated platform gives us the clarity to act on what truly matters,” said Emily Hanna, Managing Partner.  “We focus on where capital should be allocated to manage risk, optimise performance, and ensure assets remain future-ready.  Whether the hold period is three years or thirty, value is created by anticipating what’s next…and investing accordingly.”
