Asian economies continue to demonstrate robust growth, albeit at varying rates, influenced by sectoral and industrial dynamics (value chain participation) and policy stimulus measures.
We study how global equity markets price the physical climate risk associated with tropical cyclones. To assess firms’ exposure to this risk, we use a bottom-up, forward-looking measure of firms’ expected losses to their geolocalized physical assets based on simulated cyclone tracks under different climate scenarios (RCP 2.6, 4.5, and 6.0).
