Webinar: Climate risk in the insurance sector
This Spanish-language session brings together a regulatory perspective, analytical methodology and practical experience in managing climate risk in insurance.
About this webinar
Alpha-Klima organised the webinar with speakers from Spain’s Directorate-General for Insurance and Pension Funds (DGSFP) and Grupo Catalana Occidente.
This session explains how physical climate risk affects insurers, from the underlying hazards and exposed assets to claims, concentration and financial impact. It also shows where the analysis can support risk management and reporting, and where its assumptions need careful review.
Who it is for
The session is intended for insurance risk, actuarial, sustainability and compliance teams, as well as consultants and advisers who work with ORSA and supervisory reporting.
What you will learn
- The DGSFP perspective on climate risk in the Spanish insurance sector.
- EIOPA’s approach to materiality assessment and climate scenario analysis.
- How Grupo Catalana Occidente manages climate risk in practice.
