What does your climate future look like?

Climate change is driving transformation across capital markets, requiring participants to consider severe weather events, the energy transition, policy shifts, and other climate-related risks and opportunities while pushing against the limits of what’s knowable.

A recent survey by the MSCI Sustainability Institute found that 57% of capital-markets participants believe climate-related physical risks are more severe and arriving faster than current scenarios suggest. What do you think?

An exclusive webinar, co-hosted by the MSCI Sustainability Institute and MSCI’s Climate Risk Center, discussed key insights, including:

• Expectations of market participants regarding the climate future, supported by perspectives from over 350 global investment and risk professionals.
• Comparisons between the market view and widely used climate scenarios in the financial industry.
• Practical steps to interpret different climate scenarios and integrate them into investment analysis.
   

The event featured Claudio Baccianti, an economist with the Deutsche Bundesbank, who provided insight into the development of the latest scenarios from the Network for Greening the Financial System. Additionally, David Carlin, former head of risk at the UN Environment Programme’s Finance Initiative and founder of D.A Carlin, shared his perspectives on the implications for financial practitioners and the steps necessary to help shape the climate future.
