ICE has launched a significant expansion of its climate risk analysis platform, now offering detailed climate risk data for more than 20,000 global corporates and sovereigns.
The update, dubbed the ICE Global Climate Risk Solution, marks a major step forward in enabling financial institutions to assess climate-related vulnerabilities across portfolios using geospatial data.
The enhanced platform integrates physical and transition risk insights with asset-level granularity. Leveraging building footprint data covering over 1.6 billion buildings globally, it delivers scenario-aligned, forward-looking risk scores. These include exposure to eight climate hazards, such as floods, wildfires, and hurricanes, alongside emissions data and climate target tracking.
A central feature of the platform is its new building-level coverage, which now spans more than 3 million corporate asset locations. ICE said it aims to increase this to 9 million, allowing users to perform deep-dive analysis on the location-specific impact of climate events. The solution also includes ICE’s Hazard Watch feature, which tracks emerging environmental threats in real-time, providing investors with proactive insights.
ICE climate head Larry Lawrence said, “We’re excited to bring our advanced geospatial and climate analytics to a wider global audience, helping investors understand where and how climate risks could impact their financial investments. By mapping climate hazards like flooding and wildfires to specific locations and linking them with granular-level data, we are providing investors with greater transparency into both risks and opportunities within their portfolios.”
The new capabilities are designed to support both investment decision-making and regulatory climate disclosures. The platform’s forward-looking metrics aim to quantify how physical risks could evolve and affect asset valuations over time. This includes estimating the financial implications of climate events and linking them to corporate emissions, climate targets, and broader transition risk factors.
By integrating these datasets into a single solution, ICE is aiming to meet growing market demand for climate analytics that combine transparency, location precision, and financial materiality. This initiative aligns with global regulatory efforts to mandate climate risk assessments and ensure greater accountability for carbon exposure in investment portfolios.
