Lighthouse Bay Solutions
The Climate Resilience Advisory
Connecting physical risk pricing, capital structuring, and board-ready governance, for those turning transition ambitions into regional climate resilience with progress getting financed, measured and overseen.
Led by Dr. Sebastian Rath, based in the Netherlands.
Climate transitions succeed or stall on two things: whether the underlying plan is bankable, and whether the board can govern it.
Lighthouse Bay Solutions works both sides. Through Advisory Solutions, turning transition priorities into bankable, board-ready progress, and through Board & NED Support, bringing that same judgment into the boardroom.
