Earlier this week, we attended the launch of of the Physical Climate Risk Investor Playbook, developed by the Adaptation and Resilience Investors Collaborative, which we're a member of, together with guidance by the United Nations Environment Programme Finance Initiative (UNEP FI). The panel of experts--including FMO's Justus Dokter, one of our #climaterisk officers--highlighted the value to investors in taking adaptation and resilience action, and examined the practical steps to be taken in integrating physical climate risk assessment and management in investment activity. If you missed the webinar, you can still access the playbook, which offers key insights into how investors can effectively assess and manage physical climate risks, through the PDF below.

The ARIC Physical Climate Risk investor playbook launched last week provides investors with practical steps to identify, assess and manage physical climate risk in investments. As seen globally, climate change is already having profound negative impacts upon people and livelihoods, and there is urgent need for effective adaptation and resilience measures across infrastructure, value chains, business operations and homes in particular. We hope this playbook supports investment actors to meaningfully integrate adaptation and resilience in investment decisions, and capture the benefit case that adaptation and resilience presents. Both United Nations Environment Programme Finance Initiative (UNEP FI) and ARIC will be be undertaking further work in this space in the coming months so more to come here. Please find the link to the playbook here - https://lnkd.in/eRfZEJT2 Along with a recording of our launch event on Tuesday where Dr. Chiara Trabacchi shared an overview of the playbook material followed by a panel discussion between Alec Martin, Anne Chataigné FRSA and Justus Dokter on the key playbook themes, and wider A&R investment experiences and actions -  https://lnkd.in/efhfAsTz For any questions relating to the playbook please do get in touch with myself, the ARIC team or our wider partners who collaborated on its development.

Tony Hughes, Ph.D. 🤝 Robert Eccles Tony's latest for 'Unpacking Climate Risk' reflects on a recent contribution to the climate-related financial regulation debate from the redoubtable Professor Eccles (https://lnkd.in/gUAdgm_9) Both writers point out that conflating climate financial risk and climate impact has been a net negative for the planet, and possibly for financial regulators themselves, who have come in for a great deal of scrutiny with (arguably) very little to show for it. Once again, I'm not totally in alignment with Tony or Bob on this. The original sin was not embedding "double materiality" into climate risk management rules and regulations -- which was understandable in those jurisdictions where regulators interpreted their mandates narrowly. If unpriced externalities *had* to be accounted for by financial institutions then climate impact and climate risk would be much more closely aligned than they are now.

„I never thought about the link between climate change and insolvency“ … is probably what I heard most when I told people about my research at last week’s conference. So instead of writing about how great INSOL Europe was and how many amazing people I met (both true), I thought I’d share what I talked about in my presentation. In my research, I look at five climate-related financial risk categories that could push companies to the brink of insolvency (or beyond). Below is an overview of these risks. Over the next few weeks, I’ll dive deeper into each of them and explain how they can cause (or contribute to) financial distress. 👉 Stay tuned for insights that could change the way you view climate risks!

I'm currently preparing the presentation for our webinar next week and have found some interesting figures showing the financial impact that climate risks have on companies. Do you have any specific questions you would like us to answer? Please let me know in the comments section below. Talk to you on 25 June 👋
