Science-led, risk management-aligned climate data from Jupiter

Global banking leaders already understand that losses from climate volatility become more frequent and more costly by the day. But, as climate change accelerates, they cannot rely any longer on historical data to identify, prepare for, and measure the profound shifts in risk patterns driven by climate change.

Integrating trusted data derived from forward-looking climate and financial models enables banks to better prepare for emerging risks, safeguard assets across sectors, maintain business resiliency, and improve competitive position.

With its unparalleled combination of gold-standard, global, high-resolution physical climate risk analysis, transparent modeling methodology, and expertise, Jupiter Intelligence uniquely satisfies this need.

Jupiter works with three of the five largest US banks, 25% of the world’s largest financial institutions, four of the largest global asset managers, and 20% of the Global 100. Through rigorous collaboration, Jupiter has enabled these organizations to integrate climate risk into their enterprise risk-management models—and to validate those models.

Unmatched scientific excellence across disciplines

Scientific integrity is the bedrock on which Jupiter is built. Its principles drive ClimateScore™ Global, our comprehensive, transparent, and extensible climate risk management platform. Our science team comprises experts across three key disciplines:

  • Natural sciences: climatology, meteorology, hydrology
  • Data sciences: climate risk modeling, economic impact/financial modeling, accelerates Model Risk Management (MRM) decision making
  • Computer sciences: machine learning and AI

Each Jupiter model, forecast, and dataset is built and refined based on the best available science and peer-reviewed knowledge.

Rigorous Model Risk Management (MRM) in the most demanding environments

Jupiter has earned its gold-standard reputation through collaborations with internal MRM teams at the world’s largest banks. This has enabled those banks to embed best-in-science analysis from climate models into their existing analytical models. Jupiter’s underlying model, data, and quality assurance transparency enables both a bank and its regulators to assess and verify the objectivity and quality of physical risk projections.

Jupiter provides comprehensive, well-tested, and reliable MRM expertise, including:

  • Complete transparency of the modeling methodology to drive understanding in model risk management workflow
  • Full documentation of all models and layered analyses for external consumption
  • An extensive packaged test-suite library to allow internal testing to validate models
  • A successful, customizable MRM rollout template
  • Professional services that can augment internal test suite development and speed deployment

Jupiter’s extensive technical documentation is written at or above peer-review level and includes citations of relevant literature to enable even deeper exploration. Sixty tests—available to customers—enable them to reproduce methods and results at local and regional levels, and to make qualitative comparisons with published literature. Internal model, verification and validation metrics, as well as consultation with Jupiter science and technical experts, are available by request.

“There's no one in the industry that has the breadth and depth of experience that Jupiter has, and the ongoing refinement of our services based on customer feedback and the evolution of the physical risks as climate change has continued to get worse. At a much more fundamental level, the transparency of what we do, the way we've invested in something we refer to as model risk management, which ties to the risk management disciplines of our customers and makes it easy for them to integrate what we're doing into their own internal model validation and their own internal trust processes, is really the most fundamental differentiator that we have.” – Rich Sorkin, CEO and Co-Founder, Jupiter Intelligence
