We develop the first top-down method to estimate the greenness of financial portfolios, in terms of alignment to the EU Taxonomy for sustainable activities. We also develop a method to estimate, at the same time, the portfolio exposure to climate transition risk. We provide sector-level,...

Climate risk brings about a new type of financial risk that standard approaches to risk management are not adequate to handle. We develop a model that allows to compute the valuation adjustment of corporate and sovereign bonds conditioned to climate transition risk, based on available...
