New Routes: Assessing Transportation Infrastructure's Vulnerability To Physical Risks

Please join S&P Global Ratings analysts for a live interactive webinar that examines the vulnerability of rated transportation infrastructure—railways, roads, ports, and airports—to physical climate risks. We aim to provide insights into how worsening climate hazards might influence key credit factors for transportation infrastructure companies in our rated universe of corporate and project finance entities, and how they are preparing for and managing these risks.

Key discussion points:

• To what extent are our rated transportation infrastructure entities exposed to climate hazards?
• What progress is being made by rated entities on adaptation and resilience?
• What are some of the potential credit transmission channels linking asset physical climate risk exposures to material credit impacts?

Speakers: 
Paul Munday, Global Adaptation And Resilience Specialist
Zoe Parker, Senior Climate Risk Specialist
Kurt Forsgren, Sector Lead, U.S. Public Finance
Trevor D'Olier-Lees, Sector Lead, Project Finance Ratings

These webinars are a part of our “Sustainability Focus” webinar series. In this session, we will discuss key findings from the above-mentioned research. We define the agenda and speakers for each episode based on market events, notable credit rating actions, sustainable finance opinions, recent research publications, or questions we receive from market participants.
