Judge's report

Oxford Properties has successfully managed a growing platform over time. The focus on sustainable and responsible products will enable improved returns over the cycle. The firm has a strong focus on the environmental aspects of assets beyond the traditional operational angles.

Oxford Properties impresses by constant innovation and adaptation with returns to match, despite a very challenged office sector, which is indicative of the quality of its assets and stellar active portfolio management.

It continues to surpass leasing expectations, securing more than 18 million square feet of space, including the largest downtown office leases in Calgary and Toronto and outperforming the global office market.
