Climate Analytics
Manage your exposure to climate-related risks.
Our dedicated team of experts provides market participants, governments and academics with market-leading carbon data and climate data as well as state-of-the art portfolio analysis tools.
Portfolio Analytics – Corporates
Our proprietary analytics tools on our DataDesk platform enable investors to instantly assess climate risk portfolio exposure. For public equity and fixed income strategies, our Climate Impact Reports provide detailed analyses of Scope 1, 2, and 3 emissions, transition and physical risk and climate scenario alignment. Scenario alignment can be assessed against IEA, NGFS and OECM models, including scenarios aligned to Net Zero emissions by 2050 that are themselves based on the Glasgow Financial Alliance for Net Zero (GFANZ) recommendations.
Fulfill Reporting Requirements
Our reports are designed to support investors who want to align their portfolios to the goal of maintaining a 1.5°C trajectory, aligned to the Paris Agreement. Furthermore, these reports can help investors address key internal and external climate disclosures, including TCFD-based reporting initiatives where climate scenario analysis and scenario alignment are core elements of their disclosure requirements.
Key Metrics

AVAILABLE REPORTS: Climate Impact Report, Carbon Footprint Report
TCFD METRICS
Includes the TCFD’s weighted average carbon intensity and additional metrics assessing climate-related risks and opportunities.
SCENARIO ALIGNMENT
Assessment of a portfolio’s alignment with up to 22 climate scenarios provided by leading models: International Energy Agency’s World Energy Outlook 2022 (IEA), the United Nations Environment Programme’s One Earth Climate Model (OECM), and the Network for Greening the Financial System (NGFS). The analysis includes implied temperature rise, cumulative alignment metrics, cross-point year, and transparency indicators.
STRESS TESTING
Analyze how different climate scenarios can impact the financial performance of your portfolio.
CARBON FOOTPRINT DATA
Scope 1, 2, and 3 emissions, including emission intensities.
TRANSITION RISKS
Detailed assessment of company and portfolio exposure to transition risks and opportunities related to carbon pricing and demand changes, impacts on operating costs and revenues, fossil fuel reserves, power generation, and controversial energy extraction practices. Includes forward-looking returns-based analysis quantifying the potential financial impact of a net zero scenario.
PHYSICAL RISKS
Provides estimates of financial impact due to increasing hazard intensity for the most likely and worst-case scenarios by 2050 across the five most costly weather hazards: floods, heat stress, wildfires, tropical cyclones, and drought.
Investors want to deepen their understanding of the financial impact of physical climate-related risks on their investments. With climate change expected to increase the occurrence and intensity of severe weather hazard impacts, the value of portfolio holdings could be adversely affected.
Physical Climate Risk Analysis: Gauging Climate Change Impacts on Your Portfolio
This video explores our physical climate risk analysis tool, which enables investors to model hazard intensity increases, for likely and worst-case scenarios by 2050, across five of the costliest hazards: wildfires, tropical cyclones, heat stress, floods, and drought.
Portfolio Analytics – Sovereigns
We offer Climate Impact Reports for Sovereigns (including Sub-sovereigns), via our DataDesk platform. Our Sovereign Climate Impact Reports help analyze carbon emissions, scenario alignment, climate change policy, and transition risk at the Sovereign level. They also help carbon emissions analysis at the Sub-sovereign level.
They provide deeper understanding, more precise measurement, and facilitate clearer reporting when assessing Sovereign and Sub-sovereign climate-related risks. Furthermore, our forward-looking climate impact data allows investors to act with confidence in relation to their Sovereign portfolios.
