Vulnerability Assessment for Individual Assets
Increase resilience and ensure value stability
Vulnerability analyses have become increasingly established in the real estate industry because buildings and locations are increasingly affected by climate-related risks. Extreme weather events such as heat, heavy rain, flooding or storms not only affect the safety and usability of properties, but also their long-term value development, operating costs, insurance cover and rentability. A systematic analysis of vulnerability is therefore crucial in order to identify risks at an early stage, minimize potential damage and plan targeted adaptation measures.
For owners, asset managers and investors, vulnerability analyses provide a reliable basis for integrating climate-related risks into strategy, portfolio allocation and risk management. They create transparency about property-specific exposures, show priorities for resilience measures and support the fulfillment of growing regulatory requirements as well as the demands of banks and ESG ratings. Even if the basis for vulnerability analyses remains the same, the list of climate risks to be considered differs between CSRD, taxonomy and IFRS.
This makes vulnerability analyses a key tool for making real estate portfolios sustainable, stable in value and resilient to the consequences of climate change.
