Summary

The insurance industry plays a vital role in fostering sustainable economic and social development as risk managers, risk carriers, and investors, with the COVID-19 outbreak reasserting the importance of crisis management. The issue of sustainability can be viewed via a myriad of lenses drawn from environmental, social and governance (ESG) factors, with notable balance sheet risks impacting both assets and liabilities for insurers who fail to address these factors at the core of their business models. With ESG issues needing widespread and long-term action across society and innovation whilst a full understanding of their application is still in its infancy, how can the insurance industry play its part most effectively in this societal shift?

Join this upcoming webinar to listen to our panel of experts discuss the unique challenges of integrating ESG into the insurance industry:

  • How are these considerations being embedded into decision-making processes?
  • Has COVID-19 affected ESG considerations for insurers, including the development of risk-specific products?
  • How can insurers prepare for impending legislation and regulation regarding environmental risk?
  • What are the major ESG factors now that are influencing underwriting and capital provision?
  • How are insurers helping to bridge the gap between industries focused on maintaining solvency versus sustainability?
