- Selected data points in this table of indicators were determined for the years 2023 and 2024 in accordance with the GRI. The respective key figures are labelled with a reference to the corresponding framework. Other indicators are breakdowns of this information. Others follow Vonovia-specific definitions as described in the table.
- 1)An audit or verification of a supplier does not take place systematically; before the connection all suppliers with few exceptions are obliged to meet standards by the Business Partner Code.
