Description: There is value in a framework that allows a smooth transition from a qualitative assessment to a quantitative analysis as entities mature in their understanding of climate risk. In this webcast, a case study on climate change's impact on home prices, a topic the SOA published research on, will be discussed along with other perspectives. The goal of this webcast will be for attendees to takeaway knowledge and tools to begin to move toward quantitative assessments in their own fields of practice.

Description: Environmental, Social, and Governance ('ESG') frameworks have been evolving over the last several decades in industries across the globe. The Life and Annuity insurance industry has traditionally not been viewed to be largely impacted by various ESG requirements and frameworks, but as these mature and evolve, L&A carriers need to understand potential implications on their industry.This panel discussion will focus on how experiences in other industries can inform impacts and solutions to the L&A industry.

Description: The topics of ESG (Environmental, Social & Corporate Governance) and sustainability are an increasing area of focus for insurance companies, and thus actuaries. This webcast provides a primer on these topics along with considerations for US valuation actuaries and their evolution in European insurance markets.

Description: Explore the key concepts actuaries need to know in relation to climate change and detail areas of practice where actuaries have a crucial role to play, both within insurers and at other business. Specifically the session will cover:-tkey risks from climate change insurers need to be considering, climate change insurance regulatory considerations (including SEC and DOI specific developments) and stakeholder overview (e.g. investor preferences), relevant climate change reporting standards, including TCFD, climate change risk assessments and integration into risk management frameworks, climate change scenario testing, data and methodologies , net Zero in insurance, greenhouse gas quantification across investments and underwriting portfolios, and business integration and what does this mean for actuaries and what is our role?

Description: For insurers to preserve and create value, they must understand their exposure to carbon and climate risks and develop decarbonization strategies. Transition plans facilitate this by encouraging organizational thinking and disclosure to the market. 2023 is a crucial year for progress on these initiatives amid evolving regulatory expectations. This session will provide an overview of the transition planning process, value creation and drivers identification, and how to incorporate these into transition and resiliency strategies. As part of climate risk mitigation strategies during transition and beyond, we will present a data and technology framework for insurers to more effectively manage climate risk. In particular, we will discuss dynamic climate risk management (DCRM) solutions which use data and technology to inform adaptation and resilience. Emerging technologies such as AI, IoT, and blockchain can also help insurers manage risks related to climate change more effectively. By attending the session, attendees will learn how to develop transition plans, adopt DCRM solutions and leverage emerging technologies to build resilience against the challenges caused by climate change.

Description: Have you been impacted by a wildfire? A flood, maybe? If so, you know that climate change may impact on our health, our property, and, sometimes, our very lives. But do you know how it impacts your day-to-work? In this webinar, the speaker describes key climate risks actuaries need to be aware of and discusses available SOA research on climate change.

Description: Bringing together industry experts spanning investment management and property/casualty insurance, this panel discussion will take the audience beyond spelling ESG correctly and will share their insights about what Environmental Social Governance is.
