Climate change is impacting every company, and the energy transition will see trillions of dollars move within and between industries. For capital allocators and corporations, this disruption presents both significant risks and huge opportunities to fund net zero and deliver great returns for stakeholders. At the moment, decision makers have limited tools to understand climate impacts to investments and business lines. Consequences of this include increased climate vulnerability, greenwashing, and a failure to fund the transition.
Unwritten provides a single source of truth about the climate exposure of every company. Their platform covers every aspect of climate risk: from physical risks to each asset, to transition risks to cashflows and operations, to nature exposure in the supply chain. Unwritten helps investors and real economy firms detect, report, and manage the climate risks that matter to their bottom line.
Unwritten‘s cutting-edge models, intuitive interface, and decision-useful results empower ESG teams to meet regulatory requirements, build climate resilience, and capture climate opportunity.

They bring the crucial understanding of big data as well as the financial industry needed to realise the Unwritten vision. Their ability to grasp and process the most complex frameworks as well as being stellar system-level thinkers will drive the success of the endeavour.
Empowering the financial sector
Market estimates show that nearly one-third of the projected total assets under management (AUM) globally, or $50 trillion, will be in environmental, social, and governance-related assets. There is an enormous opportunity to provide asset managers with user-friendly modelling technology to demystify essential transition investments. Only by having better information available will we be able to make more informed and sustainable decisions.
Unwritten is an enabling technology that will help avoid a misallocation of capital. A better understanding of climate risks helps companies and their investors to mitigate these or to adapt to these (ECB 2021; Alogoskoufis et al. 2021, FSOC 2021).
On a systemic level, a better understanding of climate risks allows policymakers, societal actors and companies to try to shape transition pathways with low risks. Better information about climate risk will help us improve financial stability—a prerequisite for a functioning economic system—and allocate resources towards a successful transition.
