## ■Seminar content
In response to the intensifying risk of flood damage, companies are being forced to drastically review their countermeasures. The challenge faced by many companies is the difficulty of making a "balanced investment decision on how much cost to invest and how to ensure effectiveness" between strengthening protection through large-scale capital investment and developing a recovery system assuming disaster (BCP, insurance, etc.).
Currently, many companies disclose estimated damage amounts under frameworks such as TCFD, but these are still in the initial stage of grasping risks. What stakeholders want is the visualization of the positive effects of how much corporate resilience will be raised in the future as a result of taking countermeasures. At present, these values cannot be said to be sufficiently quantified.
The standard for flood control is about to change significantly. Companies need to update flood countermeasures from mere "costs" to "investments that increase corporate value." This seminar will explain strategic initiatives to step up to next-generation disaster prevention and become a company highly evaluated by stakeholders, interweaving the latest case studies.
## ■Recommended for corporate representatives who feel the following challenges:
- Attempted to calculate damage amounts with TCFD but cannot utilize them for management decisions.
- Lack of an objective "yardstick" for how much to invest in flood countermeasures.
- Feel the limits of independent countermeasures but cannot determine how investments in river basins will return to their own company.
