Join Trucost on February 11, 2020 for The Big Picture on Climate Webinar, with sessions offered at 8am GMT and 4pm GMT, to find out:

✅How physical climate risks can be tracked across corporate operating sites and supply chains, as well as the financial portfolios of investors, banks and insurers

✅How these risks can be managed alongside transitional climate risks such as intensifying carbon pricing regulations

✅ How to develop climate risk targets that align with global climate goals

More than 40% of the world’s largest companies have sites at high risk from the physical impacts of climate change — that’s wildfires, water stress, heatwaves, and hurricanes, among other risks. For U.S. companies, this rises to almost 60%. Register here: http://ow.ly/Wzkl50y4nFJ

Companies in the S&P Dow Jones Indices S&P 500 Index own physical assets across 68 countries globally, and 60% of these entities (with a market capitalization of $18 trillion) hold assets that are at high risk of at least one type of climate-change physical risk.

Heatwaves, wildfires, water stress, and hurricanes linked to increasing average global temperatures represent the biggest physical risks for these companies, with the location of assets the key factor in determining the extent of these risks—more than the industry or sector in which a company operates.

Biggest Drivers, Economic Concerns for Energy and Commodity Markets in 2020

President of S&P Global Platts Martin Fraenkel details his 5 commodity themes to watch in 2020, from energy transitions to new emerging markets. http://ow.ly/3ARQ50xJXAM

Year 2019 proved a tug of war between geopolitical tensions and macroeconomic concerns, rangebound commodity prices and -- perhaps most importantly -- rising consumer awareness of climate change. Looking to 2020, we think the year will bring some of these themes into even sharper focus.

As women and minorities seek equality, diversity in drug trials lags far behind. The healthcare industry thrives on innovation but has hardly budged in terms of equity in clinical trials, where first-in-class medicines are typically brought to market based on data from majority white, male patients.

Social #ESG factors are prevalent considerations in our analysis of health care companies because they often play a crucial role for the communities they serve and derive a portion of their revenue from the government.

Thanks to all of the guests at our event at #COP25; to Principles for Responsible Investment and International Emissions Trading Association for partnering; and to S&P Global Ratings, S&P Dow Jones Indices, S&P Global Platts, and Trucost for participating. Through two fantastic keynotes and two engaging panels many insights emerged:

- Energy companies leading on sustainability are committed to the transition to clean energy as the global energy system transitions.

- Leading corporates are increasingly addressing net zero carbon targets as part of their business strategies. These targets need independent and credible measurement as well as transparent disclosure to all key stakeholders.

- The energy transition has many possible pathways that will play out through the interaction of policy, technology and markets. Credible energy scenarios and insights on key drivers are essential to understand risks, develop strategies and manage the change.

- Millennials are driving interest in ESG investment. The most effective way to effect change is to direct your personal assets to sustainable investment.

- Almost 60% of companies in the S&P 500® and more than 40% companies in the S&P Global 1200 have physical assets which are at high risk of climate change impacts.
