The insurers role in avoiding the next big source of systematic risk in the financial system.

InsuranceERM and Environmental Finance are pleased to announce the inaugural Insurance & Climate Risk conference, taking place on 15 November at the Merchant Taylors Hall in London.

Insurance is one of the industries that could be most affected by climate change due to what it insurers and what it invests in, so the aim of this conference is to bring together departments on both sides of the insurer’s balance sheet so that they can discuss and learn what roles they can play in response to climate risk.

The conference features lively panel discussions, in-depth insights and keynote presentations on topics such as:

Special insight presentations:

• State of play of the global climate response at an international, political and sector level
• The disruptive cascade effect of physical environmental risks: impact on insurance risk and global industry
• Modelling physical environmental risks: the challenge of combining climate risk modelling with Nat Cat modelling

• The reinsurers panel
