Financial institutions are increasingly looking for ways to reduce their climate-risk exposure, take their operations to net-zero carbon emissions, and develop new sustainability-related products. This requires new analytical capabilities to assess the carbon emissions of lending portfolios and incorporate climate change into the quantification of risk.

We work closely with asset managers, banks, insurers, and other financial institutions to build portfolios that look to the future. To help strengthen our capabilities, McKinsey recently acquired Vivid Economics, a recognized leader in climate and sustainability economics with an established track record of helping clients accelerate their path to net zero.
