09:00 AM EST, 01/27/2025 (MT Newswires) -- Multiple municipal bond offerings this week have a high exposure to climate risk, specifically high Flood and Wildfire Scores, according to ICE Climate Data.

A $12 million offering from Baldwin Union Free School District, N.Y., records a Flood Score of 4.5 out of 5.0, ICE reports. Locations with a component Physical Climate Risk Score, which includes Flood, Wildfire and Hurricane, of 3.0 or higher out of 5.0 indicate high physical climate risk due to hurricane, flooding or wildfire events.

Elsewhere, a $13 million offering from Ira Independent School District, Texas, records a Wildfire Score of 3.7, and a $20 million deal from Lafourche Parish Water District No. 1, La., has a total Climate Risk Score of 4.2 due to its proximity to weather-related events, according to ICE Climate Data.
