Mission and focus areas
Climate X aims to improve how physical climate risks are identified, quantified and integrated into financial decision-making. Its core activities centre on modelling acute and chronic hazards, including flooding, heat and wildfire, across multiple climate scenarios and time horizons. These insights support ESG integration, climate risk management and sustainable finance practices. By translating climate projections into financial metrics, Climate X supports resilience planning and capital allocation decisions. Its work aligns with broader sustainability objectives by improving transparency around climate exposure and encouraging risk-aware, long-term value creation.
