As the financial sector grapples with the risks of climate change and the energy transition, the need for credible, country-specific scenarios has never been greater. Generic global scenarios are often too coarse to inform risk assessment at the level of individual portfolios, sectors, or geographies. I develop tailored scenarios and analytical frameworks that help financial institutions understand what the transition means for their specific context.
What I do
- Country-specific transition scenarios — developing India-specific scenarios that reflect national policy trajectories, sectoral dynamics, and economic conditions, rather than relying on generic global pathways
- Transition risk assessment — analysing how different climate and policy scenarios translate into financial risks for banks, institutional investors, and regulators
- NGFS scenario adaptation — working with the Network for Greening the Financial System (NGFS) scenarios framework and adapting it for country-specific use
- Regulatory engagement — supporting financial regulators in developing frameworks for climate-related financial disclosure and risk management
Past work
- Part of CEEW’s expert team for the Reserve Bank of India’s Expert Committee on Climate-related Information System (2024–2026)
- Co-authored research on the criticality of country-specific scenarios for transition risk assessment in the financial sector (under review, Energy and Climate Change)
- Contributed to NGFS scenarios modelling at PIK
Who I work with
Central banks, financial regulators, commercial banks, institutional investors, and development finance institutions.
