What is the Role of Insurance in Adaptation to and
Mitigation of Climate Change Risk ?

History / Demonstrated Record of reducing risks
-

Exploration into emerging markets
Reduction of Fire Risk / Improvement of Existing Building Stock
Improvements to Worker Safety
Improvements to Vehicle / Driver Safety
Risk Mitigation in Deployment of New Technologies
Policy makers should engage insurance industry expertise and capital to most
efficiently and effectively adapt to and mitigate risks of climate change and
natural hazards
- After all … insurers are in the business of risk …
Climate Change Risks and Opportunities
Risks:
 Failure to climate proof creates difficulties in securing investment and/or insurance cover
 Potential liabilities if climate change is not factored into long term decisions about the
future
Possible impacts:
 Insurance Policies: Check Insurers stance on undefended flood risks and impact on
premiums
 Future Developments: improved specification that takes account of future climate is likely
to be cost effective in most cases
Opportunities/Controls/Mitigation
 Evidence of climate proofing enhances reputation with all stakeholders, provides security
for investments and an opportunity to reduced insurance premiums
