Time is Money: How Delays in Model Validation Are Costing You Both

Climate risk analytics isn't just about sophisticated science—it's about creating real impact when it matters most. As organizations worldwide grapple with escalating climate challenges, from wildfire-driven insurance crises to unprecedented flooding events, the need for trusted, actionable climate intelligence has never been more critical. This year's wave of industry recognition reflects what our partners and customers experience daily: Jupiter's science-first approach delivers the clarity needed to navigate an uncertain climate future. Let's explore what these honors tell us about the evolving landscape of climate technology and resilience.

More banks are planning for climate disruption. Here’s why: severe weather events linked to climate change are increasing in both frequency and financial cost. In response, top banks are beginning to integrate forward-looking climate risk models into portfolio management, no longer relying on outdated models and assumptions.

Climate risk is no longer just a looming threat — it's a significant business opportunity. But for many financial institutions, the challenge lies not in recognizing this potential but in operationalizing it. The bottleneck? Model Risk Management (MRM).

Jupiter’s latest report, The Climate Bubble, reveals an alarming reality: the U.S. housing market is currently on shaky ground. From the Sun Belt to the Midwest, millions of homes are exposed to alarming wind and wildfire risk. Yet these risks remain largely invisible in current insurance market data and home valuations.

Rising global temperatures are more than a climate concern; they pose a significant and immediate risk to productivity, operational efficiency, and human health. With the Earth warming at an unprecedented rate, heat stress is becoming a direct challenge for businesses and industries worldwide. This blog will explore how heat stress impacts various facets of operations, the critical thresholds for safety and productivity, and why businesses need to act now to mitigate the risks.

Using Jupiter's ClimateScore™ Global, the blog post analyzes 30 U.S. manufacturing megaprojects. It identifies sites with high current and future climate risks, particularly in Georgia, Alabama, and Oklahoma, alongside areas like New York and Michigan facing significant projected increases in climate exposure.

The CSRD requires reporting on both common and lesser-known climate hazards. But now, ClimateScore™ Global is expanding its capabilities for CSRD compliance. Jupiter has long provided access to data on common perils like flood, wildfire, and drought. As part of our CSRD Module launch, Jupiter now offers metrics for lesser-occurring perils like coastal erosion, permafrost thaw, and soil erosion to support more comprehensive CSRD compliance.

Co-authored by Sébastien Burgess, Senior Principal Solutions Architect at Jupiter, this study examines climate-related risks to European energy infrastructure, highlighting the importance of asset-level evaluation and customized solutions.

The CSRD mandates over 50,000 companies to disclose physical climate risks under ESRS E1. To simplify compliance, Jupiter launched the ClimateScore Global CSRD Module, offering hazard analytics, financial impact assessments, and CSRD-ready reports — ensuring fast, precise reporting.

Organizations must adopt a comprehensive, data-driven approach to wildfire risk, integrating exposure identification, financial impact assessment, and resilience planning while addressing unpriced risks to ensure long-term stability and resilience. Unpriced risks – often overlooked in traditional models – pose a significant threat to financial stability

A physical climate-risk study conducted by Jupiter in partnership with Guidehouse reveals that conventional assets’ exposure to acute heat and precipitation will materially increase in coming decades. Southern Europe will be especially vulnerable.

Jupiter Intelligence collaborates with the International Monetary Fund (IMF) on its research into how physical climate risk could affect Gross Domestic Product on a country-by-country scale.

Jupiter Co-founder and CEO, Rich Sorkin, joins Conor Gaughan on Consensus in Conversation to talk about launching and leading Jupiter since 2018, what the future of climate risk analysis might look like, and how we’re helping organizations better predict and protect against the effects of climate change amidst an increasingly unpredictable world.

Today, we’re excited to announce Jupiter AI – our groundbreaking AI engine that harnesses the power of ClimateScore Global. Jupiter AI is designed to communicate in natural, conversational language within a chat window interface, akin to speaking with an expert who understands the nuances of climate and data science.

In the labyrinth of investment decision-making, private equity (PE) firms have traditionally navigated through financial analysis, market trends, and strategic positioning. Yet, as climate change alters the fabric of our global economy, climate risk assessment emerges as an indispensable tool in the PE toolkit—a driver not just of risk management, but of alpha, the measure of an investment's active return.
