We help public- and private-sector entities build the capabilities, tools, and processes to understand their climate risk exposure and optimize their adaptation and mitigation strategies.
Examples of our work
Strategy and risk-capability development
We helped a multilateral development bank integrate climate risk into credit-risk measurement by developing a climate-risk-assessment framework covering physical and transitional risks.
Portfolio restructuring
We worked with an oil and gas company to restructure its portfolio, which included shifting away from oil to gas assets; developing short-cycle, lower-cost projects; and moving to cleaner fuels (such as by refining more middle distillates than gasolines).
