The move to a net zero economy presents a new set of challenges for financial institutions. But it also marks a unique chance to realize the opportunities created by the transition. Central to this is being able to assess your exposure to climate risk, so you can develop a credible transition plan. But in this complex and fast-moving space, how do financial leaders set themselves up for success?
