Climate exposure insights help future-proof firm's investment decisions
The client is a top-tier global investment firm.
Specialising in alternative assets, including private equity and infrastructure, they were looking for assistance while considering a multi-million dollar utilities infrastructure investment.

The challenge
Our client's investment was in a highly climate-vulnerable region, where the fund had limited experience.
As a result, they required a deeper understanding of potential extreme weather-related losses throughout the investment tenure.
They also needed to know measures they could take during the term to preserve and enhance asset value – and maintain investment attractiveness in the face of climate change.
Action
To address these concerns, we provided:
- Physical climate risk analysis on near- and long-term weather impacts in the region
- Comparative insights across portfolio geographies
- Quantified potential losses over time, including worst-case scenarios
- An outline of risk management solutions, including risk mitigation and transfer
- Timely presentation of findings to the investment committee, within an ambitious deadline
Result
Equipped with these detailed insights, the firm:
Made an informed investment decision
With enhanced confidence in asset resilience.
Established an action plan for resilience building
With these measures achieving asset owner buy-in.
