The ENGAGE for ESG Consortium is delighted to announce that Domivest, a Netherlands-based mortgage lender and a leading securitisation issuer, has joined ENGAGE for ESG as a trial user.
Domivest will start working with the ENGAGE Templates and Portal—innovative data and IT tools developed under the EU-funded ENGAGE for ESG project—to assess the EU Taxonomy alignment of their real estate loans portfolios and securitisation transactions in a systematic and structured manner. As part of this process, Domivest will upload credit and sustainability information related to residential mortgage-backed securities to the ENGAGE Portal, receiving data quality reports and EU Taxonomy alignment reports on the data submitted.
“We are delighted to have a long-standing buy-to-let Dutch leader joining ENGAGE for ESG at a time when housing affordability and energy costs are increasing substantially”- said Marco Angheben, ENGAGE Project Coordinator and Head of Business & Regulatory Affairs at European DataWarehouse. “We stand to continue improving the energy efficiency of the housing stock”.
“By partnering with the ENGAGE Portal, we are taking an important step towards increasing transparency and consistency in our ESG reporting. The ability to provide detailed loan data, enriched with ESG insights, enables us to provide our investors with a clearer view on the environmental impact of our portfolio. This collaboration supports our ambition to integrate sustainability more deeply into our financing activities,” said Josja Reek, CFO of Domivest.
Vincent Mahieu, Head of Energy Efficiency & Regulatory Technology at Hypoport, added: “We are pleased to welcome Domivest to ENGAGE for ESG. As a leader in the buy-to-let market, Domivest understands the strategic necessity of preparing portfolios for upcoming legislation, such as EPBD IV. Their participation underscores the importance of transitioning residential real estate toward higher energy efficiency standards”.
Authorised parties, including investors, consultants, and regulatory authorities, will be able to access Domivest’s uploaded information, as well as the corresponding ENGAGE data quality and EU Taxonomy alignment reports, subject to Domivest’s approval.
European lending institutions are invited to participate in the ENGAGE for ESG initiative, giving them exclusive access to the EU Taxonomy assessment until December 2026, by emailing engage4esg@eurodw.eu.
