London-based startup Unwritten has secured $3.5 million in seed funding to address the challenge of integrating climate change considerations into every investment decision. Founded by former Palantir executives, Unwritten aims to provide investors with tools to incorporate climate risks and opportunities into their financial models.
Despite the increasing importance of climate change in the global economy, there is a lack of consistent methods to incorporate climate-related risks and opportunities into financial models. Unwritten aims to address this gap by providing investors with tools to accurately represent climate change impacts in their investment decisions.
