Top-down climate scenario analysis has firmly established itself as a key component of climate risk management frameworks for pension funds, insurance companies, and asset managers worldwide.
It plays a vital role in supporting sustainability efforts, climate reporting and disclosures, as well as informing investment decisions such as asset allocations, selections, divestments, and valuations.
Given the significant influence climate scenarios could have on key investment decisions, it is imperative for institutional investors to better understand the most commonly utilized climate scenarios for assessing the financial impact of climate change, specifically, those provided by the Network of Central Banks and Supervisors for Greening the Financial System (NGFS).
In this webinar recording, Senior Climate Specialists, Dr Bronwyn Claire and Sophie Heald discuss:
- How have NGFS climate scenarios evolved from inception to the latest release?
- What options are available for institutional investors to access and utilize the scenarios?
- What are the key considerations across each option, including potential benefits and limitations?
- Are there alternative top-down climate scenario options to address limitations?
