Investor primer to transition risk analysis

This report aims to build on scenario assessment pilots and a growing body of research that explores scenario analysis as a tool to assess assets’, countries’, sectors’ and companies’ exposure to potentially mispriced climate-related risks.

Key points

Authors define scenario analysis as a way to “evaluate a range of hypothetical outcomes by considering a variety of alternative plausible future states under a given set of assumptions and constraints”.

The first in a series of five reports, this report focuses on the methodological and conceptual underpinnings of scenario analysis. It suggests ideas (and provide tools) as to how scenario analysis can be performed and integrated into company valuations and responsible investment strategies to measure and overcome the potential mispricing of climate-related risks.
