Record-breaking temperatures have triggered a surge in destructive natural catastrophes over the last decade, highlighting the urgency of mitigating greenhouse gas emissions. Businesses, supply chains, economies and households will all need to adapt to a warmer world, and so will investors.

Join AllianceBernstein (AB) and Jeffrey Schlegelmilch from Columbia Climate School for an insightful discussion on 'Investigating physical climate risks for investors', where they will explore the multifaceted economic and financial impacts of natural hazards.

At the event, they’ll show how severe weather events and long-term climate changes affect credit, market, operational and liquidity risks. The company's experts will also discuss the data sources and indicators used to assess natural hazards and their investment implications. Participants will learn about AB's proprietary credit models, which integrate these physical risks into securities valuations, as well as issuer case studies.

Join AllianceBernstein to deepen your understanding of physical climate risk, data and the intersection with investment decisions.
