A changing climate can lead to changes in the frequency and in the severity of acute and chronic impacts. Recent examples include wildfires in Australia and the USA, and the increasing severity and frequency of tropical storms. Chronic hazards that are with us now and will manifest over decades such as changes in precipitation patterns, ocean temperatures and sea-level rise also have the capacity to impact investment portfolios and impair value over time.

It is increasingly important for investors to understand and manage these risks. IIGCC has been working with Acclimatise and Chronos Sustainability to develop guidance for investors to help them get started in understanding, assessing and managing these physical climate-related risks. Acclimatise will present the guidance developed for investors, outlining the key steps in a risk assessment and management process to help investors begin to understand and assess the risks to their portfolios. 

This event will take place at:

9:00 EDT (New York)
14:00 BST (London)
15:00 CEST (Paris)
