    Capgemini: 83% of Firms Boost Climate Adaptation Spending While 15% Measure Risk

    Question

    Capgemini: 83% of Firms Boost Climate Adaptation Spending While 15% Measure Risk

    Direct answer

    According to a global executive study conducted by Capgemini encompassing 2,100 corporate decision-makers, businesses are sharply accelerating capital outlays toward climate adaptation. While 68% of organizations view adaptation as critical to core business continuity and 83% plan higher spending over the next 12 to 18 months, significant analytical deficits persist. Just 15% of surveyed entities have implemented quantitative financial models to estimate potential climate-related asset impairment, supply chain interruption, and insurance cost escalation, creating potential earnings volatility as extreme weather events increase.
