Correct Answer is D (abrupt transition) - SCR Guide states One important transmission channel from climate to credit risk runs through operational risk. A company whose factories, warehouses, or supply chains are particularly vulnerable to extreme weather impacts (physical risk), or indeed to abrupt policy changes (abrupt transition risk), will have greater business interruption, resulting in a loss of revenues and profits.

the question is asking about physical risk not transition risk. D is obviously referring to transition risk which is immediately incorrect

Answer B is wrongly phrased. Disruption "due to climate adaptation" is not a physical risk. More of a transition risk (efforts to reduce C02, self induced). Supply chain disruptions due to Chronic or acute climate events (...) would be physical risks.

Adaptation is all physical risk, not transition risk.
