There is no sector that is not affected by the climate crisis
The transition of enterprises to the green economy is not only urged by market expectations, but also by legal regulations, and quick reaction and adaptation, as in so many other cases, is a competitive advantage here, but it can even be the key to survival. The situation was analyzed by Dóra Cserényi, BDO’s consultant, and Ákos Veisz, the leading partner of BDO’s ESG business in Hungary.
Climate change poses both physical and transition risks to the financial performance of businesses. The former result, among other things, from changes in the average temperature, precipitation distribution, and the frequency of extreme weather conditions. Such a physical risk can be considered, for example, when an important company facility is damaged by a storm. The transition risks arise from the transition to a low-carbon economy. One of their subtypes is, for example, when business partners and investors turn away from polluting companies, but we can also classify compliance with legislation setting new sustainable goals.
