GRA · Asset Management Nexus

Spatial financeWhere capital meets hazard, exposure and transition

Professional research

Asset Management Nexus research asks how physical and transition shocks reach the cash flows behind securities, how far portfolio metrics can be trusted, and how fund structures turn repricing into selling. It is precompetitive research on public data and shared methods for analysts, stewardship teams and risk managers, and never replaces a manager’s own investment analysis.

Which physical assets stand behind a listed company, and where are they?Asset-level databases joined to corporate ownership trees and legal entity identifiersOwnership chains are incomplete; coverage varies by sector
What do portfolio climate metrics actually measure?Crosswalk of financed emissions, implied temperature and value-at-risk style metrics to their inputsMetrics are not comparable across providers
How quickly do physical risks appear in prices?Event studies around dated hazard events and disclosure changesConfounding events and short windows
When does liquidity mismatch amplify a repricing?Redemption stress on fund structures using public flow dataFlow data is partial and lagged
Which holdings are common across large benchmarks?Overlap analysis on public index constituentsWeights change; licensed data limits reuse
04Use of findings

Research informs, managers decide.

Every finding carries an evidence label and passes review by a specialist outside the work. Investment decisions remain with each manager under its mandate and duties. Related work: GRA models and professional methods and Climate and Nature Financial Risk.

05Delîl

Every result keeps its label.

Results are labelled as observed, published statistics, estimated, modelled, forecast, scenario or expert judgement. Missing data is shown as missing, never filled silently.
