Jupiter Intelligence Introduces ROI Calculator for Assessing Climate Resilience for Financial Backers
In a significant leap for climate risk management, Jupiter Intelligence has unveiled upgraded capabilities for its ClimateScore Global platform. This innovative tool, now used by 25% of the world's largest financial institutions, offers a suite of features tailored for banks and asset managers to quantify and manage physical climate risk effectively.
One of the key additions to the platform is the Jupiter Adaptation Hub. This tool models over ten different climate adaptation strategies, such as floodwalls and cool roofs, enabling users to quantify avoided losses and calculate return on investment (ROI) for resilience measures. With the Adaptation Hub, institutions can evaluate how investments in adaptation can reduce climate risk financially.
Another significant feature is Jupiter Entity Modeling, which provides detailed climate risk insights at multiple entity levels, including securities, funds, corporates, and investment vehicles. This supports granular risk analysis across portfolios and exposure points.
The Jupiter MetricEngine delivers scenario-specific model outputs, empowering quantitative teams and risk officers with deeper, customizable analytics to assess risk under different climate scenarios. Meanwhile, the Subsidence Peril Metric focuses on structural risks caused by soil-moisture fluctuations in clay-rich soils, estimating average annual damage by foundation and construction type.
Jupiter's AI-driven feature, Jupiter AI™, provides instant, comprehensible insights from complex climate data, accelerating decision-making processes around physical climate risk. Furthermore, the platform's climate risk models are rigorously validated and integrated into demanding financial institutions' Model Risk Management (MRM) frameworks, ensuring precision, defensibility, and regulatory acceptance.
These upgrades allow financial institutions to calculate return on investment (ROI) for climate resilience strategies, enabling asset managers to justify resilience investments to Limited Partners (LPs), banks to meet regulatory mandates, and private equity firms to have pre-acquisition risk visibility.
Rich Sorkin, co-founder and CEO of Jupiter Intelligence, stated that the upgrades set new standards for how climate risk informs capital strategy. The upgraded ClimateScore Global platform now offers the first fully integrated solution for measuring financial impact, modelling adaptation ROI with investment-grade precision, and quantifying climate exposure.
This industry-first upgrade directly addresses growing regulatory, fiduciary, and strategic requirements in the financial sector. The platform supports integration of climate risk data into enterprise risk management and portfolio evaluation processes, improving resilience and financial planning in the face of accelerating climate change impacts.
Notably, Jupiter's climate intelligence is also used by 50% of the top U.S. lenders, demonstrating the platform's widespread adoption and impact in the financial sector. With these upgrades, Jupiter Intelligence continues to lead the way in providing financial institutions with the tools they need to navigate the challenges posed by climate change.
Science plays a pivotal role in the upgraded ClimateScore Global platform by offering quantifiable solutions for managing physical climate risk. Environmental science, specifically climate change, is integrated into the Jupiter Adaptation Hub, enabling institutions to evaluate and calculate return on investment (ROI) for resilience measures. Meanwhile, finance and investing are at the forefront as financial institutions use these tools to justify resilience investments, meet regulatory mandates, and make pre-acquisition risk assessments.
