Climate Risk Assessment & Scenario Analysis

Turn climate uncertainty into informed business decisions.

For years, climate risk work relied on frameworks. Markets have moved on. Lenders, insurers, and operators now ask whether heat, flood, and transition pathways are reflected in cash flows and risk registers. We assess exposure, test scenarios, estimate financial implications and prioritize resilience measures. Reporting for CSRD, ESRS and IFRS S2 is an output of that work—not the starting point.

GEA combines specialist advisory, AI-assisted analysis, and structured human review to help you assess exposure, explore future scenarios, and identify practical priorities for resilience and reporting.

Understand the risks. Recognize the opportunities

Climate change affects businesses through both physical hazards and the transition toward a lower-carbon economy. Understanding these effects requires more than a list of risks: it requires an assessment connected to your business model, locations, markets, and financial context.

  • Explore how changes in policy, technology, markets and stakeholder expectations could affect your business—and where opportunities may emerge.

  • Assess location-specific climate hazards across scenarios and time horizons, using available climate projections and information about your operations.

  • Estimate potential effects on revenues, costs, investment and other relevant financial measures, with transparent assumptions and limitations.

  • Use the findings to inform adaptation, mitigation and strategic priorities, and support the preparation of climate-related disclosures.

Review business information, stakeholder disclosures, and available asset and climate data to define the assessment’s scope and priorities.

Human review: Confirm scope, evidence, and priorities.

02 — Explore climate scenarios

Assess transition risks and opportunities alongside a separate physical-risk analysis, considering different future conditions and time horizons.

Human review: Validate scenarios and challenge the assessment.

03 — Evaluate financial implications

Develop practical quantification methods using company data and, where appropriate, documented external evidence and proxies.

Human review: Review methods, assumptions and estimates.

04 — Prioritize resilience measures

Bring the findings together to identify potential responses and inform adaptation, mitigation and resource allocation.

Human decision: Agree response priorities.

05 — Prepare reporting inputs

Organize reviewed findings into traceable information that supports internal communication and applicable disclosure requirements.

Human approval: Review reporting outputs.

Physical Risks

Where should you focus your physical-risk response?

Transition Risks & Opportunities

How do different transition pathways affect your business?

AI-assisted. Expert-reviewed. Traceable.

Confidence comes from understanding how an assessment was developed—not simply receiving a result.

Evidence you can trace

Key findings are linked to their sources. Information gaps and uncertainties remain visible.

Assumptions you can challenge

Scenarios, calculation methods and significant assumptions are documented and reviewed before they inform conclusions.

Results you can discuss

Findings are interpreted in the context of your business, with clear distinctions between exposure, estimated financial effects and strategic implications.

AI supports the analysis. People retain responsibility for critical judgments and decisions.

What your team takes away.

Depending on the agreed scope, your assessment can include:

  • A prioritized register of climate-related risks and opportunities, with supporting rationale.

  • Scenario comparisons across relevant time horizons and business areas.

  • Physical-risk dashboards and location-level results.

  • Financial estimates with documented methods, assumptions and limitations.

  • Priorities for adaptation, mitigation and further investigation.

  • Traceable tables and reporting inputs to support applicable frameworks, including ESRS and IFRS S2.

The objective is to leave your team with findings it can understand, review, update and use.

Make your next climate decision with greater clarity.

Whether you are starting your first assessment, updating an existing analysis, or looking for deeper financial insight, we can help define a practical scope and the right next steps.
