Climate Data
Climate change poses a major risk to the stability of the global financial system. ICE Climate Data integrates climate data and analytics for corporates, sovereigns, municipals and mortgage-backed securities, which can help investors and companies to identify, measure and understand physical climate and transition risks.
Climate Physical Risk Data
Multi-asset class solutions that provide an added layer of transparency into the risks and opportunities posed by changing weather patterns.
Climate Transition Analytics Data
Climate scenario analysis, emissions and targets data to help financial institutions develop decarbonization strategies.
Climate Value at Risk
Metrics to assess both physical (physical VaR) and transition (transition VaR) risks of a company or portfolio under various climate scenarios.

With extreme weather events on the rise investors are concerned over how different asset classes may be particularly vulnerable to physical events. ICE Climate provides forward-looking data and metrics to help investors assess and quantify climate risks, meet disclosure and reporting requirements, and discover climate-related opportunities.
- Multi-asset class coverage including public and private corporates, sovereign, municipal debt, securitized (MBS) and U.S. Real Estate
- Our global physical risk model analyzes 1.6 billion building and 3 million corporate asset locations to provide metrics on 20 thousand companies
- Machine learning model that estimates building characteristics and exposure across the globe
- Munis: CUSIP-level coverage of ~98% of the ~$4T in outstanding municipal debt

- For each hazard, climate Value-at-Risk metrics and physical climate risk scores are provided for three global emissions scenarios SSP 1-2.6, SSP 2-4.5, and SSP 5-8.5 at the expected annual property loss and for 100-, 200-, and 500-year return periods
- Use Cases include regulatory reporting and disclosure, risk management, scenario analysis, portfolio screening, and stress testing

- Data sources include Global Disaster Alert and Coordination System, Wildland Fire Interagency Geospatial Services, and National Weather Service
- Historical Data: Query maps and data on past natural hazard events and exposed municipal entities over the previous 18-month period
- Impact Metrics: Exposure metrics include total number and value of buildings, and residential and working population exposed to an event
- Security-level Data Exports: Users can export CUSIP-level data – including exposure metrics and hazard event information – for specified hazard types, regions and sectors
