This report outlines a matrix of disclosures required for investors to enable them to evaluate corporate exposure to climate change risk.
Detailed description of the resource
This report focuses on financial analyses – including real options – undertaken by firms with regard to investing in climate change adaptation activities and projects. While the economic costs and benefits are important to organisational adaptation activities, they represent a secondary level of analysis that may need to be carried out on either an independent or cumulative scale by governments or other bodies to measure the wider effects.
