Climate Scenarios & ORSA – Putting the Theory into Practice
In this session we will discuss recent industry trends to incorporate climate risk into Own Risk and Solvency Assessments (ORSA).
We will discuss how climate scenarios, like those recently produced by the NGFS can provide the basis for modelling both transition and physical risk impacts on insurers’ investment portfolios.
While the NGFS scenarios may appear to cover a limited number of narratives, the total universe of possible outcomes is much larger when the underlying assumptions are considered as sources of uncertainties which could be critical to economic outcomes and in different financial markets.
