Financial institutions and corporations have taken different steps towards incorporating climate risk and opportunity into their business strategies. They are vulnerable to at least two specific types of risks: physical risks that can result in direct damages to infrastructure, supply chains and assets; and transition risks that may result in increased costs of doing business as we move towards low-carbon economies and policy measures. There are many approaches to measure and manage these risks, including setting science-based targets, using an internal carbon price, growing green financial solutions and investments, and supporting proactive government policies.
This event, co-convened by the Swiss Government and the Carbon Pricing Leadership Coalition (CPLC), will bring together business, financial sector and government leaders for an interactive set of discussions around these issues.
