概要

This eCourse consists of two modules. There is widespread recognition that climate change and how we manage it have significant consequences for the future of the planet. In response to the expectations of governments and society at large, there is an onus on banks and the broader financial sector to take climate-related risks and impacts into account and incorporate them into their decision-making and product offerings. Module 1 provides an overview of these risks and explores how financial institutions are assessing and managing them, as well as the growing regulatory expectations in that regard.

Module 2 explores nature risk, outlining emerging regulatory efforts and examines how banks are beginning to identify, measure, and respond to these risks. Nature risk refers to the potential for financial losses resulting from nature-related events such as ecosystem degradation, biodiversity loss, or the collapse of natural systems.
