MSCI, a provider of critical decision support tools and services for the global investment community, has agreed to a strategic partnership with Carbon Risk Real Estate Monitor (CRREM).
The partnership will see two CRREM decarbonization pathways embedded into the established MSCI Climate Value-at-Risk (VaR) model, increasing the number of transition-risk pathways available for MSCI’s real estate users from 15 to 17.
CRREM data also enables improved climate calculations within the MSCI Real Estate Climate VaR model when actual carbon emissions disclosures are unavailable. It increases the granularity of the emission-intensity proxies by providing sub-categories of the retail and alternative sectors.
MSCI Real Estate Climate VaR provides a forward-looking and return-based valuation assessment to measure climate-related risks for real estate assets in an investment portfolio. MSCI Real Estate Climate Value-at-Risk is now available as part of MSCI ESG Researchâ
