Key Takeaways

Wildfire Risks Threatening Assets

Within the next decade, there is a clear and concerning rise in the number of extreme wildfire days, which poses a significant risk to investment properties.

Safe Assets No Longer Safe

The challenge for asset owners is determining which assets remain safe with changing conditions.

Conditions Changing Rapidly

Assets are no longer at risk in 2040 or 2050. Assets are at risk today—especially from wildfire.

About the Project

Assessing Wildfire Risks for Future Investments

Investment firms are increasingly recognizing the potential for more frequent wildfires, causing previously secure investments to become high-risk areas. These events not only necessitate a greater focus on wildfire preparation, but also generate interest in reevaluating individual investments. These increasing threats are also being reflected in risk reporting requirements.

Resilient Analytics was the physical risk consultant in this effort with the responsibility to analyze wildfire and heat risks to regional assets. The team was tasked with delivering a risk assessment for each location in both 2030 and 2050 under mid-range and high emissions scenarios. Each risk assessment was required to integrate with the client's financial reporting requirements.

Resilient Analytics utilized its large-scale inventory techniques to analyze each location for wildfire risks under the multiple scenarios and time slices. The team enhanced its wildfire models to conduct a detailed analysis of each site. Within each analysis, the team evaluated model alignment and severity of risk to deliver an asset-specific profile.
