08:56 AM EST, 03/03/2025 (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 $32 million offering from Brick, N.J., records a Flood Score of 4.8 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.

A $6 million bond deal from Scituate, Mass., has a Flood Score of 4.7 out of 5.0 on ICE's scale, while a $10 million tranche from Pinetop Fire District, Ariz., records a Wildfire Score of 3.5.

Separately, an $8 million offering from Cameron County, Texas, records a total Climate Risk Score of 3.7, and a $139 million deal from Manatee County School District, Fla., has a total Climate Risk Score of 3.7 due to their proximity to weather-related events, according to ICE Climate Data.
