How we support private equity in creating value from climate risk
We focus less on ESG values and more on creating financial value by helping your private equity business with:
- Screening/due diligence – Integrate climate risk considerations into due diligence and identify opportunities for value enhancement over a typical holding period and beyond.
- Valuation – Quantify the physical and transition risks facing your existing portfolio and potential acquisitions by projecting future cash flows for a range of climate transition scenarios. Assess the potential impact of climate risk on equity valuation and creditworthiness.
- Volatility and risk management – Understand your exposure to increasing volatility. Optimize insurance programs and stress-test your portfolio against disorderly transition scenarios.
- Active ownership – Help discharge your stewardship duties to enhance value with support on meaningful transition targets and realistic pathways to achieve them.
- Investment philosophy/strategy to inform decisions driving future growth, as well as compliance with an increasingly complex climate reporting landscape.
- Fundraising – Support your marketing and fundraising efforts by evidencing a focus on value creation through an analysis-driven climate risk stance.
