Analyze key sectors and companies where risk is concentrated to better inform carbon reduction strategies and support active dialogue and proxy engagement.

Transparent and understandable

Our reports include clearly defined metrics and analysis with context to help with the interpretation of the results.

Climate scenario analysis

Our reports offer deep insight into how various climate change scenarios could affect company valuations, looking at both transition and physical risks and opportunities. They also provide Warming Potential at portfolio level: the thermometer shows the warming trajectory of a portfolio, and relates it to important target temperatures in global climate change regulations.

Actionable analysis

Our climate risk reports can help inform strategies to tilt the portfolio towards lower carbon emissions / intensity, or identify high risk companies with weak carbon management strategies relative to peers.

Additional metrics on risks and opportunities

Our tools provides analysis on stranded asset exposure, together with assessments of carbon risk management practices and energy initiatives, in an effort to indicate possible exposure to environmental legislation and preparedness for transition to a low carbon economy.
