Short-term climate financial risk scenarios
"The purpose for measuring the impact of climate risk and the time horizon will vary across the financial sector...
  • Insurers may choose to focus on measuring the impact of climate change on the claims and premium volumes that drive the profits and losses in their books.
  • Banks may need to assess how climate change is to be factored in their measure of risk-weighted asset ratios to inform their capital reallocation processes.
  • Asset managers may seek to adjust their sectoral asset allocations for a given portfolio considering climate-related risk, to stabilise their projected return profile.
  • Banks, insurers, and asset managers can also assess how climate-related risk drives variations in their short-term financial earnings, asset and liability valuations, and solvency and liquidity positions."
