The team of research, data science, and software engineering professionals offers a unique skill set and cutting-edge capabilities that complement WTW’s wider climate and investment services.

The company also provides the platform underpinning the STOXX Climate Transition Indices (CTI), launched by WTW in 2021 to help investors, governments, and companies manage climate transition risk, capture opportunities in their portfolios, and work towards Net Zero targets.
