Beyond Risk Diagnosis: Making Adaptation and Resilience Investable

Organised by the EDHEC Climate Institute in partnership with the Coalition for Disaster Resilient Infrastructure (CDRI) and Scientific Climate Ratings, this event will explore how climate resilience can be translated into infrastructure investment and asset management decisions. Bringing together CDRI, the International Finance Corporation – IFC (World Bank), Scientific Climate Ratings and the Blue Dot Network, the discussions will examine the business case for adaptation, the quantification of avoided losses, and how resilient infrastructure can be recognised and rewarded by investors.

Drawing on research, investment experience and real-world infrastructure cases, the event will look at what is needed to move from assessing physical climate risk to financing resilience at scale. It will also consider how investment frameworks and market approaches can better account for the value of resilience.
