Dear colleagues We are pleased to announce the Call for Papers for the Special Issue “Transition Risks and Climate Challenges: Interdisciplinary Perspectives”<https://link.springer.com/journal/10203/updates/27823746> https://link.springer.com/journal/10203/updates/27823746 in Decisions in Economics and Finance (Springer). This special issue aims to foster dialogue among economists, mathematicians, statisticians, financial analysts, and environmental scientists, promoting quantitative and decision-theoretic approaches to understanding and managing transition and physical risks in the context of climate change. ________________________________ Topics of interest include, but are not limited to: 1) Modeling Climate-Transition Risks * Quantitative and stochastic models for transition risk assessment * Modelling the transmission of transition and climate risks in economics and financial systems * Climate risk hedging and (re-)insurance solutions 2) Sustainable Finance and Risk Management * Portfolio optimization under climate constraints * Green bonds, ESG investments, and risk–return trade-offs 3) Integrated Assessment and Climate–Economy Modeling * Coupling economic, financial, and environmental systems * Decision-making under uncertainty in climate–economic models * Economic and financial impacts of carbon pricing and policy uncertainty 4) Data Science and Machine Learning for Climate Risk * Predictive models for climate-related financial exposures * AI and big data in environmental policy evaluation 5) Energy Transition and Market Design * Pricing mechanisms for renewable energy and carbon markets * Financial stability implications of the energy transition 6) Behavioral and Policy Dimensions of Climate Challenges * Behavioral responses to climate policies and disclosure requirements * Quantitative approaches to climate-related policy design and evaluation 7) Ethical and Regulatory Aspects * Quantitative frameworks for sustainable decision-making * Regulation, accountability, and the role of data transparency in the climate transition 8) Modeling Supply Chain Disruptions in Climate and Transition Risk * Stochastic network models for interdependent production and logistics systems. * Propagation of shocks through global value chains * Measuring exposure and resilience of firms and sectors to supply disruptions. * Design of climate–resilient supply networks and insurance solutions. Important date: Submission deadline is July 31, 2026 We warmly encourage researchers and practitioners working on quantitative, interdisciplinary approaches to climate and transition risks to submit their contributions.
