About
Real estate has constantly been exposed to extreme weather events. Still, an increase in those events has greater financial consequences borne by owners, occupiers, insurers, and governments. Thus the following questions arise. To which extent do CRE markets price in the risks from extreme weather and climate change? Through which channels do these risks on value materialize? What role do insurers play? Are resilience measures the solution? To discuss these questions, the MIT Center for Real Estate is organizing a webinar on climate risks and real estate market.
