Climate Risks

IDENTIFY AND ASSESS THE FINANCIAL IMPACT OF CLIMATE RISKS FACED BY INDIVIDUAL FIRMS

Climate Risks: An Investor’s Field Guide to Identification and Assessment is a singularly incisive discussion of how to identify and quantify the riskiness of individual assets and portfolios that arises from climate change. It offers an intuitive and robust framework for classifying and measuring both physical risks to natural capital and risks posed by the expected transition to a more sustainable economy.

Author Bob Buhr draws on over 30 years of finance and research experience as he sets out a comprehensive climate risk taxonomy that will facilitate the assessment of the potential scope and impact of a wide range of risks that may remain largely outside traditional risk and credit analyses. You’ll learn how to formulate an informed judgment with respect to where and when climate risks may crystallize at a financial level.

An essential resource for lenders, investors, regulators, policymakers, and anyone else with an interest or stake in accurately identifying and measuring climate-related financial risk, Climate Risks clarifies and simplifies an increasingly urgent, substantial, and systemic threat.
