Close resilience gaps and widen your competitive advantage with strategic climate disclosure from WTW.

Use climate reporting strategically to understand your exposures, risks and opportunities and establish management measures to drive long-term performance.

Get strategic value from climate disclosure

Climate disclosure compliance is a regulatory requirement for many businesses. But for our global team of climate risk specialists, meeting the changing requirements of International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS), the Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive (CSRD), plus local jurisdiction-level climate reporting, represents an evolution toward a more strategic, evidence-based approach.

We help financially quantify your climate risks and opportunities in line with your climate reporting obligations so you can allocate resources more efficiently.

This is about advancing climate reporting data to inform business strategy, preparing your assets and operations to adapt to the physical impacts of climate change and your business model to be more resilient against net-zero regulations and market forces.

Sharpen your plans with market and insurance-industry recognized climate reporting insight

What are your most urgent climate risks and how will these affect your revenue, costs and capital allocation?

Better buy-in and capital allocation using familiar financial modeling techniques

Validate your sustainability strategies financially and help ensure they’re integrated and aligned with your existing risk management framework.

We help you ‘do the work’ on climate disclosure in ways that resonate with finance and strategy stakeholders, using methodologies and producing outputs familiar to internal stakeholders and investors.

Improved adaptation planning with strategic climate disclosure

Strategic climate disclosure is the first step toward developing robust adaptation plans.

By identifying which assets and operations are most vulnerable and what actions you can take to mitigate those risks, you reveal the most effective and efficient investments.

We help you develop adaptation plans to boost the climate resilience of your operations, investments, portfolio and supply chains.

What are your priority climate risks and opportunities and how can you manage them optimally? What mix of strategies will provide the most optimal return on investment in each climate scenario? Get answers informed by our proprietary analytical tools and specialist consultants.
