Physical Climate Risks in Investment Processes

This Special Interest Group White Paper was produced by Equitix, a member of IPFA.

This Special Interest Group, consisted of a group of industry experts based around the world, explored how infrastructure is instrumental to climate action.

As extreme weather events grow in both severity and frequency, infrastructure systems are increasingly exposed to climate-related risks. In private infrastructure markets, this exposure is amplified by the inherent vulnerability of real assets. With infrastructure damages and disruptions already costing up to $700 billion per year globally, adapting these systems is essential to protect economic development and sustain long-term value.
