Learn about the work of the SOA Climate and Environmental Sustainability Research, the research results, and their implications for actuaries. The presentation will profile TCFD (Taskforce on Climate-related Financial Disclosures) reports by insurers in India, alongside some international reports.

Discover the challenges in measuring the impacts of climate change on physical risks. This is an area where actuaries have the skills to make a useful contribution, noting that in many cases the analysis relates to risks they are already measuring.

The relationship between climate change and changing risk is typically complex as an actuary needs to engage with unfamiliar areas of knowledge. Finally, there will be a review of India’s own emissions targets and progress to date against those targets.
