This event takes place outside the secure zones for COP26 and so COP26 accreditation is not required for attendance.

ClimateWise and the Association of British Insurers are pleased to bring together senior representatives from insurance, regulators and governments to discuss the parts each must play as we step up to this global challenge.

Speakers include: Dr Ana Gonzalez Pelaez (CISL), Dr Bronwyn Claire (ClimateWise), Ben Wilson (ABI)

The University of Cambridge Institute for Sustainability Leadership (CISL) and its insurance platform ClimateWise have been working with industry, regulators and policymakers to identify the top priorities for expanding risk sharing and insurance systems, urgently, as an essential policy response to the Climate Emergency. They bring to COP26 actionable recommendations for policymakers, private and public financial authorities and the insurance sector. These provide a pathway to:

1- Quantify, manage and reduce climate risks immediately.climate crisis2.jpeg

2- Further integrate climate policy and regulation to ensure finance helps deliver a resilient, net zero, just transition for all, in emerging and developed economies.

ClimateWise and the ABI invite you to register for the launch of a call to action in the new report “Risk sharing in the climate emergency: financial regulation for a resilient, net zero, just transition”.

This collective mission involves everyone… we look forward to welcoming you.
