Transitioning towards the low-carbon economy is presenting retail with unprecedented market challenges. As climate volatility intensifies, access to advanced data analytics is essential to identify risks across the value chain, close gaps in diverse supply chains, and integrate financially quantified transition risks and opportunities into strategic planning for growth.


Climate and nature risk is business risk

The transition to a low-carbon economy represents one of the most disruptive changes retail organisations have faced in decades. It challenges established business models and requires rethinking product design, reconfiguring supply chains, changing technology, distribution, real estate and almost every aspect of operations and infrastructure.

Reporting and disclosure

Riise supports organisations to meet their global sustainability reporting obligations covering physical and transition risks across climate and nature with accuracy, consistency, traceability and credibility.

With a commercially focused approach, Riise enables the assessment of financial materiality across short-, medium- and long-term horizons under multiple emissions scenarios. Our outputs are aligned with global reporting frameworks including TCFD, CSRD, SB 261 and TNFD, among others, ensuring regulatory readiness and strategic foresight.

Riise quantifies the financial impact of both transition and physical climate and nature risks, supporting commercially relevant insights for use across the business from executive leadership to individual business units, product categories, facilities, EHS, risk, finance, sustainability and procurement.

Riise delivers improved strategic planning, greater business resilience, aligned financial and sustainability outcomes, and informed, data-driven decision making.

Strategic decision support

Risilience operationalises environmental intelligence across the business, driving future-focused decisions that strengthen long-term resilience to environmental risks.

Riise helps businesses prepare for and take advantage of the economic growth of the transition to the low-carbon economy. Sustainable businesses are more resilient to shocks from future carbon taxes, have better talent motivation and retention, and can avoid the downside shocks of technology change, stranded assets, liability and litigation penalties, and reputation damage.

Transition planning and insights

Riise supports the creation of a credible and actionable transition plan, bringing together risk insights, financial quantification and fully costed initiatives into a single optimised view.


Forecast emissions change out to 2050 based on an organisation’s growth, wider economic decarbonisation trends and company-specific transition plans.


Riise enables businesses to stress test emission reduction forecasts considering different emission pathways and view the material impact of initiatives that drive net-zero goals.

Financially quantified information is captured to support the cost-benefit analysis of individual transition initiatives, employing Marginal Abatement Cost Curves to quantify reduction initiatives by maximum potential, technical feasibility and economic viability.
