CLIMATE RISK CASE STUDIES:

INTERNATIONAL FINANCIAL INSTITUTION

AUSTRALIAN INSURER

EUROPEAN INVESTOR

Cushman & Wakefield was engaged to help a global finance organization comply with incoming climate-related disclosure obligations. This included understanding the potential physical risks of climate change to their global real estate portfolio.

Cushman & Wakefield was engaged to help a large insurer evaluate and disclose material risks and hazards across ‘at risk’ properties. The objective was to quantify, mitigate and report on exposure in line with Task Force on Climate-Related Financial Disclosures’ (TCFD) recommendations.

Cushman & Wakefield was engaged to help a pan-European institution align its portfolio with the European Green Deal reporting requirements under the EU taxonomy. This included performing climate risk assessments and identifying climate adaptation measures to boost the organization’s resiliency.
