Fixed committed:
A project is fixed committed if:

  • the project is approved by the management board and, if required, the supervisory board;
  • all parties in the project are committed;
  • the management board has a high degree of certainty that the project will be acquired and/or become operational within an agreed period; and
  • Corio can no longer withdraw from the project without a penalty and the project cannot be deferred.

A project is fixed deferrable if:
  • the project is approved by the management board and, if required, the supervisory board;
  • all parties in the project are committed;
  • the management board has a high degree of certainty that the project will be acquired and/or become operational within an agreed period; and
  • Corio can no longer withdraw from the project without a penalty, but the project can be deferred until more favourable times in terms of funding or letting.


Variable deferrable:
A project is variable deferrable if:
  • the project is approved by the management board and, if required, the supervisory board, or the management board has given a mandate to Negotiate to the relevant acquiring business unit;

  • a redevelopment, refurbishment, extension or revitalisation of existing properties in the portfolio is considered a profitable investment because Corio believes it will generate additional income for that property; and
