Climate Resilience Assessments: Four Critical Dimensions

• Physical Risk: Exposure to up to 28 chronic and acute climate hazards, including sea-level rise, flooding, extreme heat, wildfires, and wind.
• Transition Risk: Regulatory, market, policy, reputational, and technological changes arising from the transition to a low-carbon economy.
• Social Implications: Impacts on health, safety and community cohesion for users and surrounding communities.
• Financial Implications: Implications for asset value, revenue, insurance coverage, and long-term operational viability.

Your Outcomes

• Anticipate climate impacts, safeguard asset value, and maintain long-term financial performance in the face of growing environmental pressures.
• Reduced insurance premiums, as insurers increasingly favour assets with robust climate risk strategies in place.
• Ensure assets meet current and emerging compliance requirements, enhancing transparency and reducing regulatory risks.
