Climate change is affecting infrastructure investments worldwide, leading to asset value losses, higher operating costs, and reduced economic benefits. Co-published by ADB and the Global Center on Adaptation, this technical note emphasizes that the evaluation of climate-related financial risks need to be broadened to include the planning, delivery, and management of national infrastructure plans. It was produced as an input to the Global Commission on Adaptation’s Climate Adaptation Summit 2021.
