Climate Risk Summit

July 2, 2019 @ 12:00 am

Planning for climate change-related risks is now an essential task for any chief executive. Even those who prefer to ignore the problem find themselves increasingly unable to do so: investors, regulators and capital markets are demanding better information on the physical and infrastructure risks that climate change poses for companies, the legal liabilities they are likely to face, and the assets which may become stranded during the transition to a lower-carbon world. These risks lie—unidentified and often poorly managed—on the balance sheets of the world’s largest businesses and financial firms.
The Economist’s inaugural Climate Risk Summit will bring together policymakers, business leaders, scientists and investors to begin a conversation about how organisations around the world can understand and manage climate-related risks. What impact will such risks have on markets and the economy? How can they be managed and mitigated? And how can businesses and investors seize the opportunities presented by climate change?
