Who would use the CRISP^TM Score?

Why Does Climatekk Matter?

In order to solve a problem, both understanding and clearly communicating the problem are the first step in coming to a solution. Knowing the issues that an organization faces, in a concise and clear manner, is the keystone of the solution. In other words, you cannot manage and/or report on what you cannot measure and quantify. Organizations who use Climatekk and their CRISP^TM Scoring capabilities, (Climate Resiliency Index for a Sustainable Planet) provide entities the ability to tangibly measure and manage climate risk and move towards risk mitigation and resiliency.

The financial impact of climate change and climate resiliency as viewed against a companies TCO, ROI and compliance profiles are now under ever increasing focus and is further exacerbated by the requirements that external and internal stakeholders are bringing to bare in order to ensure fiscal and environmental stability. As told to CNN, “Climate change poses serious risks to the stability of the financial system” per a senior International Monetary Fund.

Managing for climate change means translating risks and opportunities into the right business language. Once climate-related risks and opportunities are translated into business financial terms, management teams can better justify new investments or strategies compatible with various climate futures.

How does CRISP^TM help?

Climate change is no longer a question of environmental policy, it is a financial metric used to evaluate the resilience and wherewithal of an organization. In the United States, President Biden has instructed all federal agencies to consider the climate implications of their actions. Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen has called climate change an "existential threat" to the global financial system and an urgent concern for federal regulators.

According to some, current reporting of financial risk in financial markets is systematically underpricing the broad, systemic risks presented by global climate change. Others discount the value of more stringent climate disclosure requirements and question whether financial and securities regulators are in the best position to address climate-related concerns.

Using Climatekk and generating CRISP^TM Scores, tangibly allows organizations to quantify risk and outline a prioritization strategy for the most impactful mitigation. The CRISP^TM Score highlights areas of strength and weakness as well as, on an industry-by-industry basis, leverages all known quantification schema and criteria into a central repository of truth and effort, saving time, cost and ensuring compliance and accuracy. The CRISP^TM score will provide a listing of actionable outcomes that can be used to improve resiliency and financial standing.
