Climate Materiality Screen
Screen climate exposure for financial and impact materiality.
Description
A climate-materiality screen applies separate financial and impact thresholds to supplied scores.
A climate-materiality screen applies separate financial and impact thresholds to supplied scores. Double-material means both numerical gates pass.1
Screen climate exposure for financial and impact materiality.
When to use Climate Materiality Screen
Use this tool to screen climate exposure for financial and impact materiality.
Prepare the supplied policy terms, dates, assumptions or recorded indicators requested. Keep monetary amounts on one currency basis and select the applicable thresholds separately.
How to use Climate Materiality Screen and understand its results
- Prepare the supplied policy terms, dates, assumptions or recorded indicators requested. Keep monetary amounts on one currency basis and select the applicable thresholds separately.
- Enter financialMaterialityScore, impactMaterialityScore, financialThreshold, impactThreshold using the field table and calculation rules, then run the tool.
- Read financiallyMaterial, impactMaterial, doubleMaterial, screenResult. The explanation below defines the units, signs, ordering and any flags or placeholder values.
- If the tool reports an input issue, correct the values and run it again. Apply the stated assumptions when interpreting a successfully returned result.
| Input field | Meaning | Value type; see rules below | Requirement |
|---|---|---|---|
| financialMaterialityScore | Financial materiality score | number; minimum: 0; maximum: 100 | Required |
| impactMaterialityScore | Impact materiality score | number; minimum: 0; maximum: 100 | Required |
| financialThreshold | Financial threshold | number; minimum: 0; maximum: 100 | Required |
| impactThreshold | Impact threshold | number; minimum: 0; maximum: 100 | Required |
Enter scores and thresholds 0–100. Return each inclusive flag, conjunction and double-material, financial-only, impact-only or neither label.
financial=score≥threshold; impact=score≥threshold; double=both Units, indexing, boundary conditions and exceptional cases are defined in the calculation rules above.
| Output field | Meaning | Value type |
|---|---|---|
| financiallyMaterial | Financially material | boolean |
| impactMaterial | Impact material | boolean |
| doubleMaterial | Double material | boolean |
| screenResult | Screen result | string; one of "neither", "financial-only", "impact-only", "double-material" |
{
"input": {
"financialMaterialityScore": 80,
"impactMaterialityScore": 70,
"financialThreshold": 60,
"impactThreshold": 60
},
"output": {
"financiallyMaterial": true,

} Limitations and assumptions
No exposure, sustainability evidence, reporting framework or regulatory materiality determination is assessed.
Numeric inputs must be finite. Follow the calculation-specific rules for overflow, underflow and exceptional cases. Missing required fields, extra fields, wrong value types and violations of the calculation rules are input errors. A successfully returned false flag is an evaluated outcome; its meaning is explained above.
Alternative or Complementary methods
Use PML Aggregation: Aggregate modeled occurrence losses into a caller-parameterized PML. For a complementary task, use RBC Action Level: Compare an insurer RBC ratio with caller-supplied action thresholds.
