Could understanding the value of resilience be the route to riches in a climate-changed world?

Hunter Maats is betting his career on it.

In this final episode of our New York Climate Week interview series, the CEO of Resilience Investments — a real estate asset manager — digs into the climate and affordability factors causing people (and capital) to flee the Sunbelt for the Great Lakes, and what this means for US housing markets.

He also lays out the case for forward-looking, climate-informed investing in real assets, and why a resilience-first approach should replace the uncomfortable duality of ESG analysis and traditional financial modeling

If you want to understand the next big shift in real estate and investment markets, this is the episode for you.
