Conklin, New York, October 18, 2023 – ADEC Innovations, a global leader in environmental, social, and governance (ESG) solutions, is pleased to announce the expansion of its trusted property risk assessment tool, “RiskFacts,” into the comprehensive property risk platform “ADEC SiteRisk.” This evolution comes in response to the changing landscape of the commercial real estate industry, warranting a more robust property risk assessment and management program amongst industry players. The commercial real estate industry has been experiencing remarkable activity and changes – from shifting workplace expectations and practices, rising interest rates, increasing climate change impacts and other environmental risks, etc. All these emphasize the essential need for reliable risk assessment tools. Regulatory changes proposed by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) further underscore the critical importance of better risk assessment and management in the industry. A recent study published in the journal Nature Climate Change indicated that the U.S. real estate market may be overvalued due to unrealized environmental risks, likewise highlighting the significance of comprehensive property risk assessment. ADEC SiteRisk represents a significant enhancement in the field of property risk management. The platform offers a comprehensive suite of solutions, to efficiently respond to the growing industry challenges and its ever-evolving landscape. ADEC SiteRisk solutions include the following:
