Reliable Services for Climate Risk Preparedness
The Ecoefficiency Group offers practical and strategic climate change risk services to help organisations identify, assess, and manage the risks associated with climate variability and regulation. Climate risk is now a central issue for business planning, particularly as reporting requirements increase under financial and environmental regulations.
Our services are tailored to provide clarity, compliance support, and long-term value protection across physical and transitional risks. We work with boards, risk managers, and sustainability teams to integrate climate considerations into broader corporate governance and strategic planning frameworks.
Supporting Governance and Reporting Obligations
With the introduction of climate-related financial disclosures, many organisations are now required to report on how climate risk affects current and future business operations and financial performance.
The Ecoefficiency Group assists clients in meeting these expectations through detailed risk assessments, board-level workshops, and the development of strategic roadmaps. We provide visual tools and reporting frameworks that help stakeholders understand climate risks and how they are being managed.
This includes aligning reports with the Australian Government’s Mandatory Climate-related Financial Disclosure requirements and international standards such as the Task Force on Climate-related Financial Disclosures (TCFD) or local equivalents. We assist companies to develop Disclosure statements around climate risk.

Structured and Practical Climate Risk Assessment
Our climate risk assessment approach mirrors proven safety and operational risk methodologies.
We evaluate both physical climate hazards and transition-related risks resulting from policy shifts, changing technologies, and evolving market expectations.
Risk categories typically assessed include:
- Physical threats such as flooding, bushfires, droughts, and heatwaves
- Operational exposure due to supply chain or asset vulnerability
- Transition risks related to energy costs, carbon pricing, or shifting customer requirements
- Regulatory exposure to mandatory climate reporting
- Financial implications for insurance, asset values, and capital planning
We work with our clients to prioritise risks based on their likelihood and potential impact, helping clients identify mitigation options and prepare strategic responses.
Enhancing Organisational Resilience
A comprehensive climate risk assessment supports long-term resilience and responsible business planning.
Our work ensures that climate considerations are embedded within existing governance systems and strategic processes.
We support:
- Integration of climate risk into enterprise risk management frameworks
- Cross-departmental collaboration and awareness

We also work with clients to ensure that climate-related findings are accessible to key decision-makers across finance, procurement, operations, and executive functions.
