We are compelled to develop a deeper understanding of the growing body of research that lies at the intersection of company financial information and climate science if we are to paint a robust picture of companies' future risks and opportunities.
While the pace of climate change is a matter of some debate, most would argue that our path of travel is not.
As investors, our primary job is to predict the future. This means that we are compelled to develop a deeper understanding of the growing body of research that lies at the intersection of company financial information and climate science if we are to paint a robust picture of companies' future risks and opportunities.
For companies with business operations that are highly dependent on water, those taking active steps now to reduce their water dependence will be better positioned than slow-moving peers. Moreover, they will drive demand as customers of businesses that make"green" products and services. More efficient use of water should ultimately lead to lower operating costs, giving them an important competitive edge.
By viewing companies through a climate lens, such as water stress, we can augment our traditional investment view that is anchored on financial statement analysis and factor in the proactive steps that companies are taking to gain a more nuanced assessment of a company's fair value and future earnings potential.
