Description: News stories from this past year have included a steady stream of reporting about events associated with climate risk. Photos of devastation from this past summer’s wildfires, deaths caused by heat waves, and suffering from other severe weather events have made clear the far-reaching impact of these events. In addition, there is an increase in concern in longer term non-catastrophic changes (e.g., air quality, higher heat indices, etc.) that may impact such things as land use and health and well-being. As more encounters with these events have occurred, it has become increasingly evident that retirees and those approaching retirement can be both directly and indirectly impacted in their aftermath. This impact may be felt across several broad areas including: retirement investments and the economy; housing; governmental/policy shifts; individual retirement planning and risk assessments, financial institution changes, and additional ill-health and mortality. With these issues in mind, the Society of Actuaries (SOA) Research Institute’s Aging and Retirement, and Catastrophe and Climate Strategic Research Programs (“sponsors”) have partnered on this research effort to explore this topic from the perspectives of a variety of retirement system stakeholders. The result of this effort is intended to provide a useful resource for readers to become well-grounded on the issues surrounding the impact of climate risk on retirement and set the stage for future research.
