Our data: We’ve assembled leading climate scientists and economists to develop transparent, peer-reviewed methodologies to calculate the past, present, and future climate risk for properties and asset classes spanning real estate, infrastructure, and companies. Using physics-based deterministic models, we predict the likelihood of floods, wildfires, hurricanes, and other hazards at any location on Earth, along with associated damage and downtime.
Our customers: We aim to incorporate climate risk data into every financial decision made today. We are relied on every day by:
- Institutional investors like Norges Bank Investment Management and Blackstone.
- Banking enterprises, including Bank of America and Fifth Third.
- Government bodies ranging from Fannie Mae to the US State of Connecticut.
- Millions of everyday users on Zillow, Redfin, Realtor.com http://Realtor.com, Homes.com http://Homes.com, and more.
