Risilience Recognized by Verdantix for Market-Leading Physical Climate Risk Capabilities as Financial Impacts of Climate Hazards Mount

Independent assessment highlights Risilience's differentiated asset-level risk analysis, integrated risk modeling and financial quantification as businesses face growing physical climate threats.

CAMBRIDGE, England, Sept. 10, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Risilience, the technology company helping businesses turn climate and interconnected risk into actionable financial intelligence, has been recognized for its market-leading capabilities in physical climate risk in the latest Verdantix Smart Innovators: Physical Climate Risk Solutions (2026) report. The evaluation positions Risilience as an industry innovator and market leader, highlighting its differentiated ability to combine holistic risk scenarios with deep financial quantification.

Physical climate risks are growing more frequent and severe, threatening real assets, infrastructure and biodiversity, while their financial toll is mounting. In 2025, the UN Office for Disaster Risk Reduction (UNDRR) calculated the global cost of damages from natural hazards at $224 billion. As these hazards intensify, real asset owners, investors and financial institutions must forecast physical climate risks in a timely manner – identifying their sources, quantifying their impacts and implementing mitigation strategies to prepare for a hotter world.

Verdantix's latest report benchmarks eleven physical climate risk solution providers, reflecting a market that is rapidly evolving as businesses move beyond climate risk scores and dashboards towards actionable intelligence that can inform investment, resilience and strategic decisions.

Risilience was awarded the highest rating, "Market-leading functionality, with differentiated offering", for both asset-level risk analysis and integrated climate and non-climate risk analysis. The assessment also identified strong functionality across five additional areas, including long-term hazard modeling, business strategy risk analysis and the production of adaptation-relevant metrics.

"We are proud to be recognized by Verdantix as a market leader in physical climate risk solutions," said Tom Harvey, SVP Product Management at Risilience. "Their independent analysis validates our focus on providing deep, financially quantified insights, highlighting our market-leading capabilities in asset-level risk analysis and integrated climate and non-climate risk assessment."

Risilience's Financial Quantification module, which converts hazard exposure directly into financial impact using sector-specific coefficients, was highlighted by Verdantix as a key differentiator. This reflects a wider shift in the market towards financially grounded climate intelligence that can support investment decisions and business planning.

Verdantix also highlights Risilience's ability to combine climate risk with macroeconomic, cyber and geopolitical scenarios, describing this as a "highly valuable and differentiated capability". This integrated approach enables organizations to assess physical climate risk alongside the wider factors that can shape business performance and resilience.

The report also recognizes RiiseIQ, Risilience's generative AI innovation, which makes complex climate and financial risk data more accessible through natural-language exploration. Together, these capabilities position Risilience as a leader and innovator in the physical climate risk solutions market, with particular differentiation in financial quantification and integrated risk assessment.

"Verdantix's latest report on physical climate risk confirms that the market requires more than just risk scores; it needs financially relevant intelligence," continued Harvey. "We are delighted that the report recognizes Risilience's market-leading ability to translate complex climate hazards directly into financial impacts, empowering businesses to make resilient investment decisions."
