Climate risk analysis: a secure foundation for your long-term success

What are the biggest economic risks posed by climate change? And how can companies identify all the potential risks in time? Our experts will help you to conduct a climate risk analysis to determine your company’s climate risks and to take possible countermeasures.

Here you will find an overview of all the relevant basic information related to climate risk analysis.

Several EU regulations, such as the Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive (CSRD) and the EU Taxonomy, which incorporate the recommendations of the Task Force on Climate-Related Financial Disclosures (TCFD), as well as the growing demands of investors and stakeholders, are increasing the demands on corporate climate risk management. To meet these requirements and to integrate climate risks and opportunities into their risk management and corporate strategy, companies need verifiable climate risk management processes.

Identifying potential measures early on and promptly implementing these can strengthen your company's resilience to physical and transitory climate risks. Physical risks include, for example, increasingly frequent extreme weather events or rising sea levels, while transitory risks result from the transition to a low-carbon economy. The climate risk analysis serves as the basis for assessing your company’s resilience. In the coming years, this analysis will become increasingly important with regard to reporting, communication with banks and insurance companies, and with business partners in the value chain.
