In the project StressTest, CICERO will produce scenario data and guidelines that will allow help financial actors to respond to regulatory initiatives on scenario use.
CICERO’s new sector briefs cover the most important aspects of climate risk and impact to investors and lenders. The climate risk assessments of agriculture, aluminium, aquaculture, land transport, real estate and shipping have been developed in partnership with CICERO Shades of Green and leading Norwegian financial institutions.
This suite of scientific factsheets aim to build financial decision-makers' understanding about physical climate risk assessment, data needs, climate modeling and extreme events.
Financial institutions face challenges in identifying and processing data on climate hazards to assess physical climate risk and fulfil TCFD-reporting requirements.

This presentation series aimed at providing guidance for the financial sector dives into climate hazards and case studies on physical climate risk.
