Spring has been a busy period for Scientific Climate Ratings, marked by onboarding new clients across banking, insurance, corporates, and the public sector, global industry events, strategic partnerships, and important milestones for the company. It was a good start to Q2 when we officially joined the UN-supported Principles for Responsible Investment and being awarded the Finance Innovation label, reinforcing our commitment to advancing transparent, science-based approaches to climate risk integration in financial decision-making.

Across the Atlantic and into Europe’s main financial centres, from the Responsible Investor Forum in New York to the Global Infrastructure Investor Summit in Berlin and ChangeNOW in Paris, our leaders, scientists, and experts joined industry discussions on how climate risk is becoming central to investment decision-making.

But above all, behind the scenes, the entire team has been working on a new generation of solutions set to be released very soon. From ClimateMetrics, a platform that translates climate risk into financial metrics for private assets across geographies, to upcoming sovereign climate risk ratings that will redefine how climate risk is measured and assessed across countries and regions, these developments mark a significant step forward for the industry.

Exciting updates are on the way. Enjoy the read, and don’t miss the next edition.

Scientific Climate Ratings is pleased to announce the official launch of ClimateMetrics, a platform that translates physical and transition climate risks into standardised, comparable financial metrics.

ClimateMetrics bridges a gap the market can no longer afford by bringing climate considerations directly into investment analysis, portfolio monitoring, risk management, and reporting workflows, and in doing so enables the industry to identify new opportunities.
