4 Institutionalization THE INSTITUTIONALIZATION OF RIO DE JANEIRO S REAL ESTATE MANAGEMENT : Colony s capital : Capital of the Portuguese empire : Capital of the Brazilian monarch Federal District s assets State of Guanabara s assets New acquisitions State of Rio de Janeiro s Assets 1889 Republic proclamation 1960 New capital Brasília 1975 State merging

5 Institutionalization THE INSTITUTIONALIZATION OF RIO DE JANEIRO S REAL STATE MANAGEME The branch responsible for real estate had a Public Body status; The Public Body became a Superintendence; Since 2008 It received the status of Undersecretat, subordinated to the Planning and Management Secretariat of State Government of Rio de Janeiro.

6 Institutionalization HEALTHY FINANCIAL SITUATION The country s current healthy economy impacts the financial situation of the state of Rio de Janeiro: Loan from the World Bank to procure a private partner to organize the State of Rio de Janeiro s portfolio (total square meters, values (market) of the buildings and legal documentation); Outsourcing of the portfolio s measurement, managed by this Undersecretary, to the Spanish enterprise NIP Ingenieria, Estudios y Proyectos S.A. ( )

7 Regional assets distribution THE INSTITUTIONALIZATION OF RIO DE JANEIRO`S REAL STATE MANAGEMENT Total number of assets: 5,096 NORTHWEST 5.6% GREEN COAST 5.6% SOUTH 6.4% CENTRAL 2.9% METROPOLITAN 58.2% MOUNTAIN REGION 8% BLUE COAST 4.8% NORTH 8.6%

8 Special-purpose property Other State Administrative Offices (secretaries, departments, PPS, TCE and Legislative) 15% Judicial Offices (MP, TJERJ, DPGE, T.R.E) 3% NGO s 2% Common goods of people 1% Planning and Management Secretariat 33% Rio de Janeiro s Real Estate Portfolio is either occupied by public bodies (the vast majority) and private occupants. Public Security 6% Municipal and Federal Administrative Offices 14% Public Education / Science and Tecnology 26% Private individuals and legal entities are charged to use public buildings. However, private institutions with social purposes are not charged.

9 Strategies 1 The State Government has DEMOBILIZED those buildings that are not being used by public bodies. Such measure reduces the cost of maintenance. 2 The Brazilian population is growing - and also the State of Rio de Janeiro - which entails constant increase in demand for equipment and other public services. This reality obliges the government to maintain a CONTINGENCY RESERVE of real estate in order to satisfactorily meet institutional demand. 3 The introduction of a SUSTAINABILITY LEGAL CLAUSE in all Legal Use Assignment between the Undersecretariat for Real Estate and other public body (schools, police stations, fire brigades, museums, etc.) or private occupant. 4 The State Government has improved its efficiency by REFURBISHING PUBLIC BUILDINGS. The reforms are using materials and equipment that reduces energy consumption and waste of water, for example.

10 Real Property Examples SUSTAINABILITY CLAUSE This clause demands that all assignees must adopt green practices, which aims: - to improve environmental quality (non pollutant materials, green roof); - to decrease waste (reusable materials); - to conserve natural resources and energy (photovoltaic cell plates). State Public Library, city of Rio de Janeiro The first one in LA to win the Golden seal, the highest LEED s certification
