CLIMADA Technologies AG
CLIMADA Technologies, an ETH Zurich spin-out, offers delta-climate, a physical-risk and adaptation service built on the open-source CLIMADA multi-hazard model its founders developed in academia. It quantifies the socio-economic and financial impact of weather and climate hazards probabilistically, combining hazard, exposure and vulnerability layers, and screens adaptation options by cost and averted loss. The underlying engine is peer-reviewed (Aznar-Siguan & Bresch, 2019) and openly inspectable; EIOPA built its open-source climate-risk application on it. Distinctive for a published, open-source foundation in a market of largely proprietary commercial models.
Vendor methodology
Public transparency, not model quality iThe Transparency Score (0–3) estimates public methodological transparency: the degree to which the vendor's analytical approach to modeling climate and nature risk can be assessed from publicly available sources. It is explicitly not a measure of vendor quality or accuracy.
Transparency leader: risk methodology is openly documented, peer-reviewed, or open-source.
Transparency leader: the commercial tool builds on the open-source, peer-reviewed CLIMADA project (ETH Zurich), so its core hazard-to-impact method is fully public and reproducible.
