This report is a supplement to The Climate Risk Landscape published in 2021 which mapped climate-related financial risk assessment methodologies. The landscape review summarized key developments across third party climate risk assessment providers. Together, the two reports provide financial institutions with resources for understanding both the theoretical as well as the practical attributes of different tools.
Climate Risk Dashboard
In January 2024, UNEP FI’s Climate Risk and TCFD Programme updated the Climate Risk Tool Dashboard, further supporting financial institutions in navigating the constantly evolving universe of climate risk tools. This database aims at enhancing climate risk tools readability by providing a comprehensive overview of more than 40 tools’ features, metrics, methodology, assumptions, and common use cases. It includes extensive information on tools’ features, alignment with sustainability-related disclosure standards or regulations, policies around data quality and sourcing, and more.
