Climate Water Risk Pricing
Strategic A.I. Decisions for Corporate and Financial Markets
About Us
Equarius™ = Equity + Aquarius
Climate risk causes blind spots in your corporate supply chains. Do you understand the ripple effects of water risk exposures on your P&L, market metrics and cost of equity?
Disruption in operations resulting from floods and droughts, water-based logistics, competition for water, and counterparty credit risks resulting from water exposure are challenging to quantify in financial terms. Equarius™ Risk generates financial insights for supply chain risk management (SCRM) and indexing using machine learning and generative A.I.
By capturing multiple risk verticals, our waterBeta® platform allows for risk ranking of facilities, decision impact simulations and climate risk-adjusted cost of equity valuations. Our patent-pending algorithms were licensed from the University of Michigan with full right of use for all regions and all applications.
