Financial institutions around the world are seeking to stay informed of the world’s climate trajectory so they can prepare their investment portfolio to respond to the associated impacts.
ClimateSIGNS aims to provide banks, pension funds, insurance companies, asset managers and sovereign wealth funds an independently researched and science-based view on the world’s current progress across a number of hypothetical but plausible climate scenarios by tracking and analyzing key indicators of progress on decarbonization and climactic signals. The indicators draw on our climate scenario modeling insights and are complemented by expert views on the potential future.
ClimateSIGNS is incorporated into our climate scenario analysis solution – ClimateMAPS’ interactive qualitative scenario dashboard.
To help the global investment community integrate climate change further into their investment decision-making, our Climate & ESG Solutions team is continuing to innovate ClimateSIGNS.
If you would like to receive more information about ClimateSIGNS or have any questions, please contact us.
