Science-backed risk intelligence: New solution combines over 18 climate risk layers and 3 million mapped assets with data from NASA, NOAA, and WRI for rigorous climate risk analysis.
Regulatory-ready and enterprise-focused: Built-in alignment with CSRD, TNFD, IFRS S2, CDP, and EU Taxonomy enables streamlined compliance and executive decision-making.
End-to-end mitigation planning: Tools for site-specific risk scoring, scenario modeling, capital-at-risk analysis, and stakeholder-ready dashboards support real-time adaptation and resilience.
Benchmark Gensuite, in collaboration with GIST Impact, has launched a Sustainability and Climate Risk Management Solution, designed to help global enterprises quantify and manage climate-related risks across their operations and supply chains.
Powered by GIST Impact’s natural capital analytics and science-based data from NASA, NOAA, and the World Resources Institute (WRI), the solution enables users to map, assess, and mitigate both physical and transition climate risks across more than 3 million assets.
“This solution brings together science, technology, and business value,” said Peter Walsh, Senior Director of Sustainability and ESG Digital Solutions at Benchmark Gensuite. “It empowers organizations to move beyond compliance and into proactive climate risk management—backed by real, science-based data and industry best practices.”
Key Features Include:
Geospatial Risk Mapping: Asset-level views and global overlays to visualize climate risk distribution.
Dynamic Scoring & Heat Mapping: Risk ranking based on exposure, vulnerability, and capital-at-risk.
Scenario Modeling: Future risk forecasts using IPCC, IEA, and NGFS climate pathways.
Mitigation Planning: Stakeholder-ready visualizations and tools to design and track corrective actions.
Compliance Integration: Embedded reporting aligned with CSRD, IFRS S2, CDP, and EU Taxonomy.
Executive Dashboards: Real-time decision support for sustainability, finance, insurance, and operations leaders.
The offering is built into Benchmark Gensuite’s enterprise-ready platform and leverages modules such as Data Exchange Portal, Profiler, Mapper, and Risk Registry to continuously update risk profiles and integrate insights across enterprise systems.
“It’s a purpose-built solution for real-world complexity,” said Walsh. “By combining machine learning-based estimation, scientific validation, and expert analysis, we’re helping organizations make data-driven decisions to build climate resilience.”
