Core Values
Our entrepreneurial actions are guided by certain core values. These values determine how
we work, and they commit us to ethical and responsible behaviour in relation to our shareholders,
business partners, employees and the community:
Integrity and transparency Sincerity and openness are prerequisites for establishing
trust. We set standards for transparency by publishing all of the information that is relevant to the valuation of our real estate holdings on a property by property basis. We engage our shareholders, business partners and interested parties with a high degree of openness.
Customer orientation We strive to provide modern, well-equipped and efficient office
space with an appealing work environment so that our tenants can achieve the greatest possible
success in their business. We seek to ensure high levels of customer satisfaction by maintaining
high standards of service. In the past year, we systematically analyzed the level of incidental
expenses for all investment properties in order to assess and optimize their economic
efficiency in the interests of our tenants. In the final analysis, we exceeded the benchmark by a
significant margin.
Creating sustainable value Our focus on attractive city center locations, our emphasis
on high quality standards and our multi-tenant strategy lead to a high degree of investment
security for our property portfolio and foster a long-term appreciation in value to the benefit
of our shareholders. To ensure the sustainability of this growth in value, we also stress environmental
aspects such as the use of resources, waste management and the environmental
compatibility of building materials. POLIS is a founding member of the Deutsche Gesellschaft
für nachhaltiges Bauen e.V. (German Sustainable Building Council).
