Climate finance

Between 2008 and 2022, CICERO and its subsidiary Shades of Green, have been one of the world’s largest providers of second party opinions on green bonds. The business was sold to S&P Global in 2022.

The research program Future Challenges in the Nordic mobilizes researchers in the Nordic countries. The funders of the program do not only expect the research projects to focus on societal challenges, they also believe that the social sciences and humanities have important contributions to the solution to complex challenges. The project Fossil Free Futures: Divestment Across the Nordic Countries will try to do exactly that.

S&P Global has acquired CICERO Shades of Green, the world’s largest provider of second party opinions on green bonds from CICERO, a Norwegian climate research centre.

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

This suite of scientific factsheets aim to build financial decision-makers' understanding about physical climate risk assessment, data needs, climate modeling and extreme events. 

Climate change is a real financial risk, but the risk depends on the complex evolution of climate policy, technology, and the climate system. CICERO’s new climate scenario guide explains how investors can use scenarios to evaluate different financial risks.
