Translate physical climate risk into financial impact
Climate change has far-reaching business implications and will continue to affect the magnitude and frequency of acute and chronic hazards.
Climate Uncertainty
Effective climate risk modeling must comprehensively capture physical climate trends and assets’ climate exposure and vulnerability.
Hazard
Best-in-class hazard insights give information on the potential for climate-related physical events or trends that may damage or destroy an asset.
Exposure
Capturing the unique characteristics that determine each asset’s climate exposure, is essential for accurate modeling of interactions between hazard and vulnerability.
Vulnerability
Accurate vulnerability estimates reflect the susceptibility of an asset to damage or business interruption requiring deep understanding of all exposure-related aspects.
Financial Impacts
Basing climate assessments in financial modeling generates decision-ready metrics to translate climate risk into a common currency, for portfolio management and risk strategy.
