Welltower is a publicly listed company headquartered in Toledo, Ohio, United States. Welltower is a real estate investment trust (REIT), which owns interests in properties in Canada, the United Kingdom and the US. Its portfolio consists of senior housing, post-acute communities and outpatient medical properties. As of January 2023, the company had investments in around 3,000 properties.
Summary
Welltower discloses information on some topics related to urban sustainability but lacks disclosure on many important topics.
The company demonstrates good practices by disclosing how it engages with regulators including local authorities as part of its stakeholder engagement process. However, Welltower shows significant reporting gaps in key sustainability areas. The company should regularly disclose on the affordability of its properties. Additionally, it should describe how it identifies human rights risks and impacts at specific locations or through its business relationships. The company should also report on risk assessments for all types of natural disasters relevant to its operations. Addressing these gaps will help indicate the company’s preparedness in addressing important sustainability challenges.
Welltower can also strengthen its governance and transparency practices. Although the company links its executive remuneration with environmental and social aspects, it should report time-bound, measurable sustainability targets or KPIs to enhance transparency. Additionally, it should consider expanding access to its confidential and anonymous mechanism for raising bribery and corruption concerns to all stakeholders to reinforce its commitment to ethical practices.
