Carlo Richardt Appointed as New Head of ESG at Periskop Partners

Periskop Partners has announced the appointment of Carlo Richardt (38) as the new Head of ESG (Environmental, Social, Governance) at the company’s Berlin headquarters, effective immediately. As a certified Sustainable Finance Manager, Richardt will oversee the strategic development and practical implementation of the group’s sustainability objectives. In his cross-functional strategic role, he will work closely with Periskop Partners’ subsidiaries to establish a sustainable risk management approach focused on long-term value stability.

Carlo Richardt brings extensive experience in sustainability management and the real estate industry, with specialized expertise in ESG integration, data management, and development financing.

Most recently, Carlo Richardt served as an ESG Specialist at ZBI GmbH, where he oversaw ESG integration at the property level and developed tailored sustainability concepts and solutions.

"ESG is more than ever caught between the pressing need for long-term action and the immediate challenges posed by regulatory pressures. This makes a credible and pragmatic approach all the more essential. With Carlo Richardt, we are strengthening our ability to identify ESG risks at an early stage, manage them effectively, and ensure long-term value preservation for our investors,"
