Physical Risk Intelligence: New Capabilities for Capital Allocation and Risk Decisions

Companies are now more than 6.5 times as likely to issue a profit warning following an extreme weather event than they were two decades ago. For lenders and investors, those impacts can extend across asset values, insurance costs, credit quality and portfolio performance.

Join MSCI and First Street (now part of MSCI) on September 10 for an interactive luncheon exploring how First Street’s physics-based, peer-reviewed hazard modeling across more than 2 billion structures worldwide enhances MSCI’s climate and geospatial capabilities. We’ll share practical use cases for using granular physical risk intelligence to price, assess and manage physical risk, along with lessons learned and emerging industry best practices.

What you’ll takeaway:

• Understand how MSCI and First Street combined capabilities can strengthen physical risk intelligence across investment, credit and risk workflows.

• Learn how banks are integrating physical risk across the credit lifecycle.

• Explore practical approaches to identifying concentration and tail risk and incorporating climate into stress testing and scenario analysis.

• A live workflow walkthrough showing how physical risk analysis can be applied across financial processes from origination to portfolio monitoring.
