Physical climate risk is no longer a distant scenario - it is reshaping underwriting, capital allocation and client relationships today.
The MSCI Institute’s latest research,
What the Market Thinks: How Global Insurers Are Responding to Rising Physical Risk, synthesizes insights from more than 50 of the world’s largest insurers on how the industry is adapting to escalating extreme weather and climate-related hazards.
Join David Carlin, Founder D.A.Carlin and Company, Pam Palena, Insurance Research Lead, MSCI, alongside Butch Bacani of the UNEP Finance Initiative for a virtual discussion as we unpack:
- Insurers’ perspectives on the industry’s readiness for rising physical risk.
- Emerging commercial opportunity in resilience advisory services and parametric products
- The growing shift toward layered intelligence and geospatial analytics
- The fundamental challenges of forward-looking analytics.
- What the next phase of physical-risk integration looks like in underwriting, pricing and capital allocation
Together we will examine what the findings mean in practice and discuss how insurers can move from risk assessment toward resilience leadership in an era of intensifying physical risk.
