- Supply chain disruptions due to climate events
- Increased compliance conditions and costs towards meeting strengthened flora and fauna regulations
- Increased compliance conditions and costs towards meeting strengthened water regulations
- Increasing operational and capital expenditure driven by supply chain constraints, services restrictions, and changes in market demand
- Reduced footfall and tenancy driven from improved work from home capacity/conditions
- High cost for infrastructure upgrades to meet tenant expectations for net zero buildings
- Risks and opportunities arising from research and development that leads to new and alternative technologies
