Investors can seize opportunities arising from a transition to a low carbon economy by using ISS ESG’s Carbon Risk Rating’s analyst driven assessment that evaluates the extent a company is exposed to future challenges related to climate change.
The Carbon Risk Rating assesses the climate-related performance of companies, considering not only industry-specific challenges and risk profiles but also a company’s positive impact in terms of climate and energy use.

Physical Risk Analysis
ISS ESG’s Climate Physical Risk assessment gives the investor a holistic overview of their exposure to physical climate risks and the financial materiality of that exposure, based on each company’s specific profile.
The increase in occurrence and intensity of severe physical climate hazards will result in direct threat to financial stability with abrupt value losses and productivity losses and expose investors’ portfolios to a lot of risks.
With ISS ESG’s Physical Risk Assessment investors can model hazard intensity increases for likely and worst-case scenarios by 2050 across six of the costliest physical climate hazards: tropical cyclones, river floods, coastal floods, wildfires, heat stress and droughts.
Both ISS ESG’s Transition Risk and Physical Risk VAR offer multi-scenario analysis that takes into consideration a company’s specific exposure profile and leverages a proprietary EVA model to establish future financial risk.
This model offers clients a consistent, comparable and style agnostic financial valuation that cuts through accounting distortions and charges for the use of capital.
