Mid-America Apartment Communities (MAA), founded in 1977 and headquartered in Memphis, Tennessee, US, is a publicly traded real estate investment trust (REIT) and an S&P 500 company. MAA focuses on acquiring, owning, operating and selectively developing apartment communities in the Southeastern, Southwestern and Mid-Atlantic regions of the US. As of December 2023, MAA maintains full or partial ownership of 296 apartment communities, encompassing 102,000 housing units.
Summary
MAA discloses information on some topics related to urban sustainability but lacks disclosure on many important topics. The company reports that its highest governance body has expertise in key sustainability topics. Additionally, it has a global, publicly available privacy statement regarding the collection, sharing, and access to personal data. These practices support the company’s decision-making on sustainability issues and help build trust.
However, there are several areas in which MAA can improve its performance. The company should begin reporting regularly on the affordability of its properties to enhance transparency and address stakeholder concerns. Additionally, it should commit to zero ecosystem conversion of protected areas to demonstrate a stronger stance on environmental protection. While the company reports on the geographic distribution of its employees, it is recommended to also disclose the proportion of employees hired locally. Addressing these gaps will enhance transparency and strengthen MAA’s environmental and social commitments.
