The biggest challenge in assessing climate risks for companies is that there are so many different risks. Potential climate risks should therefore be thought through using well-founded assumptions, taking into account key influencing factors and developing a wide range of scenarios - in order to then prioritize them accordingly and focus on the greatest risks.
We create a wide range of risk scenarios for your company, identify and prioritize the greatest climate risks for you and derive recommendations for action to counteract and avoid these risks at an early stage. In this way, we proactively support the future viability and sustainability of your organization.
Climate risks are very abstract. It helped us to map them in different scenarios and then prioritize them for us!
Those who anticipate their own company's climate risks at an early stage and dare to take a close look will create the best preparation and basis for a viable and entrepreneurially successful future. Playing through and evaluating all scenarios increases the chances that these risks will never materialize thanks to good prevention and innovation strategies. We are happy to use your risk analysis as a basis for deriving positive sustainability strategies for the future of your company.
Five Glaciers supports you in developing science-based climate targets (SBTi), creating a climate transition plan, and implementing emissions reduction strategies in accordance with the CSRD/ESRS.

Climate risks can be divided into physical risks, such as extreme weather events, and transitory risks (transition risks), such as CO₂ pricing or changing market requirements. Companies that assess their climate risks can better protect themselves against future financial and operational uncertainties. In addition, climate-related risk analyses are increasingly being demanded by investors and regulatory authorities.
Companies can minimize climate risks by investing in climate-resilient infrastructure, sustainable supply chains and low-carbon technologies. They should also integrate measures to adapt to changing regulatory requirements into their corporate strategy at an early stage. Close collaboration with stakeholders helps to identify future risks at an early stage and develop countermeasures.
The EU taxonomy defines which economic activities are considered sustainable and promotes investment in climate-resilient companies. Companies must prove that they make significant contributions to climate protection and do not cause significant environmental damage. The taxonomy therefore has a significant influence on the availability of capital for companies with high climate risks.
ESRS E1 requires companies to identify physical and transitory climate risks and analyze their financial impact. Companies must also explain what measures they are taking to minimize risks. The results are included in the non-financial reporting of the CSRD and influence investment decisions.
Companies should evaluate their business strategy on the basis of different climate scenarios in order to identify potential risks and opportunities at an early stage. A 1.5°C scenario, for example, shows how stricter CO₂ regulations will affect business models, while a 4°C scenario focuses on extreme physical climate risks. Such analyses help with long-term strategic planning and investment decisions.
