RICS新主席Martin J Bruhl：「可持續發展企業是負責任的企業」

香港2015年6月30日電 /美通社/ -- 皇家特許測量師學會（Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyors，以下簡稱RICS）宣佈委任 Martin J Bruhl FRICS 為第134屆主席。他於今天（30日）發表就職演說時表示，可持續發展商業模式能帶動環球房地產市場的繁榮、創新及投資，其重要性不能忽視。

Martin是首位來自歐洲區會員擔任主席，現職國際投資機構 Union Investment Real Estate 的國際投資管理主管，擅長可持續發展的投資及風險管理。RICS主席任期內，他將重點處理三項工作，包括推動國際標準、RICS未來報告、以及維護行業的多元化及包容性。

關於可持續發展的投資方面，Martin指出，環球房地產業界需携手確保業界的生命週期能保持可持續發展，並需把負責任的行動視為衡常採取的商業行動。                    

RICS 於上周和聯合國全球契約就土地、建築、房地產企業及其合作夥伴，推動全球業界踐行社會責任與可持續發展的商業操作模式。他讚揚RICS在聯合國全球契約中起領導作用，推動行業發展。

Martin 同時強調風險管理的重要性日益增加，表示現時為由各個中央銀行共同推動的歷史性低息年代，對風險管理的挑戰有增無減，此亦為 RICS 提供機會，領導基金經理思考其作為受託人的責任。

Martin 出身於房地產投資，精通英語，德語和法語。他在 Union Investment Real Estate 專責監督歐元區以外的房地產交易，包括英國，美洲和亞太地區等。
