Ceres Report – Insurer Responses to Climate Change

Ceres: “Global warming and the growing incidence of extreme weather events pose an enormous challenge to the insurance industry. This summer’s devastating floods in Europe and wildfires in the West are only the latest reminder of why investors and consumers are concerned about the impacts of climate change on insurers. This report focuses on the significant progress made by insurers to develop these new products and services. It identifies 422 real-world examples from 190 insurers, reinsurers, brokers and insurance organizations from 26 countries. That’s more than double the 192 products and services that we identified in a similar report done by Ceres in August 2006.”
