Client story: global markets investment firm Adams Street Partners
Quantifying portfolio transition risks: assessing exposure to climate-related risks in assessment
Preparing to complete its inaugural TCFD Report in 2024, global markets investment firm Adams Street Partners leveraged Risilience’s Earnings Value Transition Risk (EVTR) File to evaluate the firm’s exposure to climate-related transition risks.
Climate transition is reshaping how financial institutions operate
Climate transition risks are the financial, operational, and strategic shocks organisations face as the world shifts to a low-carbon economy – driven by policy changes, new technologies, market shifts, and evolving stakeholder expectations.
Adams Street Partners: Assessing exposure to climate-related risks in investments
Read the full client story to learn more about:
• Securing quantitative financial insights into how the global shift towards a low-carbon economy could affect industries by country, sector and firm size under a range of transition pathway scenarios.
• Gaining granular transition risk insights despite limited data availability, to develop a company-wide approach to quantifying exposure to climate-related transition risk as part of its investment process.
“Adams Street’s approach to investing responsibly implicitly recognizes the benefits of integrating ESG considerations in the investment process in terms of both risk mitigation and sustainability-linked value creation. Using the EVTR File has helped us to identify underlying investments with potential exposure to climate-related transition risk as part of the firm’s pre-investment ESG screening, as well as to analyse exposure to transition risk in existing portfolios, as part of our post-investment monitoring and reporting.”
