BEVERLY HILLS, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Global real estate investment company Kennedy Wilson (NYSE:KW) has released its 2023 Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) Report. The report underscores Kennedy Wilson’s efforts to strengthen the foundations of the company’s ESG program focused on delivering long-term social, environmental, and economic value across the portfolio and to key stakeholders.

“The sixth iteration of the annual report outlines a practical and thoughtful ESG program uniquely tailored to Kennedy Wilson’s business model, with the flexibility and transparency to meet the needs of our many stakeholders,” said William McMorrow, Chairman and CEO of Kennedy Wilson. “I am pleased with the continued progress in our ESG journey, and incredibly proud of our humble and talented teams for working to deliver value to our shareholders and partners while doing what is right for our communities and for the environment.”
