Making Portfolio Properties More Flood Resilient

Resilience is the Ultimate Sustainability• Corporate Sustainability

Programs have not generally included “physical risks.”

• Measuring “green-ness”, not vulnerability to floods and climate risks.

• Deutsche Bank’s new Study: “Measuring Physical Climate Risk in Equity Portfolios”, November 2017.

• New technologies enable property-specific flood risk assessments.

Greater Storm Frequency and Severity• Hurricanes Harvey and Irma

revealed an astounding lack of resiliency;

• Not enough property owners insured;

• Property owners not properly educated about flood risks;

• Property owners not incentivized to mitigate flood risks;

• Federal, state and local governments under invest in coastal resiliency.

Study Finds FEMA Flood Maps Missed 75% Of Houston Flood Damage Claims Between 1999 And 2009

Flooding along Interstate 10 in Houston as a result of Harvey

FEMA Flood Maps:

• Backward looking in time;• Don’t include sea level rise or climate

change;• Don’t include heavy rainfall flooding;• Don’t show the same inundation levels

as NOAA Storm Surge Models;• Are fixed and don’t reflect seasonal

changes;• Are not linked to any real-time

conditions.

Public and Private Infrastructure at Risk

Without both public and private resilience investments, our coastal societies will continue to suffer damage and disruption from flooding and climate change impacts.

A Climate Resilient Coastal Future?

YES! But, How Do We Get From Here to There?• Resiliency aka/”Climate

Adaptation Success” requires orchestration of efforts by all levels of government, individual property owners (residential and commercial), insurance companies, and finance --

• Starting NOW!

10

Rapidly Screen All Portfolio Properties for Flood Risks

• Use new technologies to rapidly flood risk score all portfolio properties;

• For properties with significant flood risks, take a “deeper dive” with parcel-specific, visualized assessment reports.

Customer Endorsement

“I called Coastal Risk Consulting as part of my due diligence for the purchase of a piece of land on the Eastern coast of Florida because I was very concerned about the possibility of flooding. The Coastal Risk Rapid Assessment™ report I received greatly exceeded my expectations. It was very thorough, helpful, and made it easy to move forward in this $2 million sale. I found this company to be very helpful and responsive. I would recommend Coastal Risk to anyone who is buying, insuring, or funding any piece of property!” -Diana Goulet, Commercial Real Estate Buyer
