The sustainability working group of the Swiss Association of Actuaries and SCOR are excited to announce the Sustainability in (Re-)Insurance Conference 2024 which is taking place on Thursday October 3 2024 at SCOR in Zurich. The event aims at bringing together actuaries to discuss how sustainability impacts (Re-)Insurance and what it means for actuaries. We will have many engaging speakers with interesting sessions on the agenda, covering a variety of diverse sustainability topics from climate risk modelling, emerging sustainability related insurance products to key regulatory developments.

We will also record the event and share it on actuview for those who are unable to attend in person. There will be a visit to a local pub near the venue after the event.  

Please note that the number of registrations for live attendance is limited due to limited capacity at the venue and inform us if you cannot make it anymore to reduce no shows

SAV CPs: 6

First in time, first in line

Programme 9 - 13 septembre 2024

The SAV Sustainability Climate Scenarios Working Group has a pleasure to share with you our latest article: “Introduction to climate scenarios”.

This article provides a short introduction to general concepts and terminology related to climate change, climate risk, climate scenarios, and the impact on insurers. It also provides an overview of selected regulatory and supervisory guidelines and stress tests. Scenario analyses are a tool for supervisors as well as insurers that are increasingly used to understand potential implications of climate change risks in the short, medium and long term, with the aim of understanding potential implications of such risks and helping to strengthen resilience and defining actions for climate mitigation and adaption. Regulatory requirements in this area are fast-evolving and heterogeneous across jurisdictions. Some regulators are requiring institutions to perform holistic climate scenario or stress testing analyses to assess the consequences of physical and transition risks on the financial sector, while others have not yet defined a granular regulatory framework.

We hope to give you a better understanding, to spark your interest in the topic of climate scenarios and that you enjoy our introduction to the topic.

Best regards
SAV Sustainability Climate Scenarios Working Group
