In partnership with Global Risk Institute, the Intact Centre on Climate Adaptation developed this resource for institutional investors and other financial market participants to integrate climate risk into investment decision-making. Central to the report are six industry-specific climate risk matrices (CRMs), developed in consultation with senior executives from the target industries, identifying key climate risks/impacts, potential risk reduction/mitigation measures and key questions to help determine an organization’s mitigation readiness. 

The report includes CRMs for the sectors below and encourages their use as a template to develop CRMs for all 77 SASB-recognized industries in Canada: 

• Electricity Transmission & Distribution;
• Hydro Electricity Generation;
• Wind Electricity Generation;
• Real Estate – Commercial Towers;
• Property And Casualty Insurance; and
• Banks/Residential Mortgages
