Quantifying the Value of Resilience in Real Estate
This panel discussion will guide the audience through the journey in leveraging forward-looking data to quantify physical climate risk for real assets and taking the next steps of assessing the economic impacts of physical risk exposure and identifying potential resilience investments. Moody’s / RMS climate change experts alongside industry early movers will discuss the latest research, tools, and lessons learned in integrating climate risk and resilience into real estate decision-making.

- The shifting regulatory landscape and how climate risk modeling can satisfy increasing climate risk disclosure requirements for real estate investments
Adaptation and Resilience in the Sustainable Debt Markets
This panel discussion will highlight how intensifying physical climate risks are heightening the need for issuers to finance adaptation and resilience projects. While climate mitigation projects continue to account for the lion’s share of sustainable bond proceeds, adaptation and resilience financing is gradually growing and will continue to do so as issuers – particularly in the public sector – prepare for an evolving landscape.
- Growth of sustainable debt markets
- Innovative financing for adaptation and resilience
- Evolving nature of risks facing issuers, especially in the public sector
