Climatrix Climate Risk Assessments by Asuntopuntari
FI / EN
Evaluate the climate risks of a single property or your real estate portfolio as part of market and business risk management. The Climatrix climate risk tool, integrated with Asuntopuntari, quantifies and reports physical climate risks in the financial, insurance, and real estate sectors in Europe, in accordance with EU taxonomy requirements. Physical climate risks can lead to property damage, business disruptions, increased insurance and other costs, supply chain disruptions, and potential loss of property value.
Did you know that for many companies, it is critical (and soon mandatory) to identify, assess, and build resilience to acute and chronic physical climate risks? In addition to the reporting required by the EU taxonomy, ESG certification also positively impacts the value of properties.
Managing the Financial Risks of Climate Change with Climatrix
The Climatrix climate risk tool, complementing Asuntopuntari's property assessments, makes climate risk analysis measurable and continuous risk management easy. As climate change intensifies extreme weather events, it is crucial to understand where and when potential risks may arise and their possible financial impact. Climatrix provides a comparable and numerical assessment of risks, considering different climate scenarios and timeframes. This is essential because no one knows for sure how emission reductions and climate change will progress, so preparing for different scenarios is a key part of risk management.
The Climatrix Climate Risk Tool by Asuntopuntari Enables Regulation-compliant Sustainability Reporting
The EU taxonomy and the CSRD directive increase requirements for Finnish companies regarding responsible business practices and sustainability reporting. The EU taxonomy and the CSRD directive aim to improve the transparency and comparability of companies’ sustainability activities. Sustainability reporting will become mandatory for companies of various sizes and will be based on European standards. Companies will be required to publish and verify their sustainability information, covering a wide range of ESG topics, including human rights, supply chains, and environmental impacts.
Climatrix’s climate risk assessment methods adhere to industry-leading standards, including the EU taxonomy and TCFD (Task Force on Climate-related Financial Disclosures), ensuring that the climate risk reports produced with the tool meet strict regulatory requirements.
Climatrix Takes into Account Different Timeframes as Well as Climate and Emission Scenarios
The climate models used by the Climatrix climate risk tool extend up to the year 2100. In addition, the service can assess climate risks in the present and provide risk forecasts for the years 2030, 2040, and 2050. Climatrix performs risk calculations separately for different emission scenarios defined by the IPCC: RCP2.6, RCP4.5, and RCP8.5, which are compatible with the so-called SSP (Shared Socioeconomic Pathways) scenarios. Depending on the source data, other scenarios can also be considered.
Benefits of Climatrix
Ensure long-term business resilience by identifying risks related to production processes, facilities, and supply chains in a rapidly changing climate.
With Climatrix, industrial companies can:
- Identify physical risks that may affect supply chains, disrupt production processes, and cause damage to production facilities (factories, warehouses, offices).
- Analyze risks from portfolio level down to individual assets.
- Utilize climate risk analyses to support decision-making, optimize investment locations, supply chains, and infrastructure.
- Integrate climate risks (physical and transitional) into corporate risk management processes.
- Perform simulations and stress tests.
- Meet regulatory requirements for ESG and CSR reporting.
