Join the GARP Italy chapter as we convene risk management and climate experts from both industry and the insurance space to discuss the economic impact of physical climate risk and Nat Cat events on local governments, corporate entities and insurers. Our panel of experts will discuss the evolution of the impact of natural events with a particular focus on the following:
- Frameworks corporates can apply in assessing and managing climate risks to strengthen operational resilience.
- Evolving role of insurers and reinsurers and implications of new industry regulation.
- New dynamic data driven approaches and tools for monitoring physical climate risk exposure.
Join us for what promises to be a highly informative event, where insurance companies and industry converge will discuss the most pressing issues linked to climate risk and Nat Cat events.
