Our Approach

"Little by little, one travels far."

- a Spanish proverb

As our economic engines, we need our businesses to thrive as we transition to a low carbon global economy.

Yet, the:

  • Effort required to understand and manage climate risks - and to build resilience - may be beyond many businesses’ wherewithal to undertake, particularly in a challenging economy.

  • Time needed for internal “upskilling” - even to understand and apply free resources - may be more than businesses can afford, particularly with challenging labour markets.

  • Costs associated with commercial resources and consulting services needed to translate granular, expert data into decision-useful information may be prohibitively expensive for many businesses.

We enable faster, better & fairer climate resilience journeys for businesses, online and on demand.

  • Faster: Access climate risk intelligence for 10 hazards within 24 hours including flood, storm surge, extreme heat, wildfire and drought.

  • Better: Strategically position your business in the market by benchmarking against your peers’ and competitors’ climate-related reports and disclosures.

  • Fairer: Use key financial impact metrics for your operational, market and credit risks to negotiate with your insurers, lenders and buyers.

We break it down to build it up, little by little.
