With the number of billion dollar disasters increasing from year to year and property insurance costs skyrocketing in response to elevated physical climate risk, incorporating newly-available physical climate risk analytics into investment decisionmaking processes is becoming increasingly important.

Building upon How to Choose, Use, and Better Understand Climate Risk Analytics (2022), this webinar explores the latest insights from ULI’s follow-up report, Physical Climate Risks and Underwriting Practices in Assets and Portfolios. This globally-focused event features a panel of esteemed real estate experts and climate risk consultants.

Learn how leading firms are operationalizing physical climate risk analytics, and dive into the report’s new decision-making framework designed to assist the real estate industry in assessing and addressing physical climate risks–from due diligence to disposition. The framework itself offers a step-by-step guide that aids investors and practitioners in evaluating the costs of action and inaction, comparing costs and benefits of resilience, and making informed decisions about assets vulnerable to climate risks.
