Building Resilience Index

The Building Resilience Index is an innovation of IFC, a member of the World Bank Group focused on private sector development. The Index is a risk-mapping and resilience assessment tool for the real estate industry, which standardizes and quantifies disaster risk, and creates a system of reporting on adaptation and resilience. The Index includes a free App that evaluates location-specific, climate and natural disaster-related risks for a real estate project, and assigns a standardized letter grade of resilience based on adaptation measures implemented. The App is designed for stakeholders in the real estate sector, including financial institutions, lenders, developers, insurers, buyers, and governments. The offering is part of the broader Technical and Advisory services from IFC to assist clients.
