Are you prepared for the economic fallout of climate change?

The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) estimates that global economic loss would total USD 54 trillion by 2100 with 1.5°C of warming, USD 69 trillion with 2°C of warming, and USD 551 trillion with 3.7°C of warming. As payouts increase, so will the price of protection.

Assess the risk of climate change to different lines of business

Our climate change solutions help you understand the growing risks and rising losses from physical and liability aspects of climate change, so you can prepare operational and strategic resilience initiatives that meet the needs of all stakeholders.

Improve climate risk insights and streamline reporting

A near-present view of risk for climate disclosure and ESG reporting combines with specific studies for strategic planning and answering stakeholder questions.

Stress-test and rebalance your portfolios

Climate change liability scenarios help pinpoint the sensitivity of your portfolio to liability risks resulting from the changing climate.

Get peril-specific insights

Verisk’s atmospheric peril models are updated frequently to reflect the climate change that has already happened.

Available Regions

Climate Change Models help you satisfy the regulatory climate disclosure requirements of the Task Force on Climate-Related Financial Disclosures (TCFD), Bank of England’s 2021 Climate Biennial Exploratory Scenarios (CBES), and other regulatory bodies globally.

Our Climate Advisory Council provides research-backed insights to help you address the near-term and long-term climate impacts on your natural catastrophe-exposed portfolio by region and peril.

Features and capabilities

Climate change-conditioned projections

These projections can help identify the sensitivity of your portfolio and provide a range of possibilities on how future climate change can impact average annual losses (AALs) and other metrics under different socioeconomic scenarios with different climate policies.

Extensive documentation

Model documentation for atmospheric perils includes a climate change chapter highlighting the consideration of historical trends during model development, the underlying model data, and validation of the model from a climate change perspective.

About Catastrophe Modeling

In the case of rare but severe events, historical loss information is often unreliable in assessing future loss potential - that's where catastrophe modeling comes in.
