Carbon Asset Risk: Discussion Framework

Delivering sustainable economic growth
Sep 30, 2015 | World Resources Institute, UNEP Finance Initiative

This Framework was developed by the World Resources Institute and the UNEP Finance Initiative in consultation with more than 100 energy, climate and finance experts as a resource for financial institutions. It assists in evaluating the non-physical risks of climate change, or carbon asset risk. This financial risk is driven by non-physical factors during the transition to the low-carbon economy: changing public policy and private sector regulation, rapidly evolving technologies, unpredictable economic markets, and shifting public opinion.
