SUMMARY:The financial costs and impacts of climate change
DESCRIPTION:Joining Moody’s and McKinsey in a virtual round table discussion is an opportunity for participants to delve into the realm of assessing physical risks to their tangible asset portfolios. By engaging in this dialogue\, the attending teams can effectively appraise potential financial losses resulting from damages and operational interruptions. Moreover\, the conversation will encompass the shifting landscape of insurance feasibility due to the influences of climate change. \nThe forthcoming one-hour online seminar will delve into the specificities of certain markets where climate change-driven incidents like hurricanes\, floods\, and wildfires are progressively inflicting more extensive harm and business disturbances. Noteworthy experts from McKinsey and Moody’s will collaborate to present a case study centred on evaluating risks within a portfolio belonging to a US-based bank. Through this illustration\, attendees will gain valuable insights to facilitate informed decision-making concerning conceivable financial ramifications linked to tangible assets. Additionally\, the discourse will touch upon credit implications and the evolving perspectives on the feasibility of insurance\, which are undergoing transformation as a result of the impacts of climate change. \n

SUMMARY:5th annual ESG and Climate Risk Week
DESCRIPTION:The 5th annual ESG and Climate Risk Week looks beyond ESG and climate risks to provide practical scenarios on how companies are strengthening their climate disclosure.

SUMMARY:Climate Week NYC
DESCRIPTION:Climate Week NYC stands as the premier annual event in the realm of climate action\, uniting around 400 events and activities within the expanse of New York City. Through a blend of physical\, hybrid\, and digital formats\, this weeklong gathering draws together a diverse array of participants. This assembly includes business magnates\, political trailblazers\, community leaders\, and representatives from civil society worldwide\, representing varied ages and backgrounds. Their common purpose is to propel the transition towards a sustainable future\, expedite the pace of progress\, and champion the ongoing transformations. \nPlaying host to this impactful gathering is the Climate Group\, a global nonprofit organization dedicated to accelerating climate action. The week’s official program\, orchestrated by the Climate Group\, serves as a nexus for prominent figures spanning business\, government\, civil society\, and the climate sector on an international scale. \nThis year’s iteration of Climate Week NYC is slated for September 17-24\, 2023. Orchestrated in partnership with the United Nations General Assembly\, the event occurs in coordination with the United Nations and the City of New York. \nThe event’s core activities encompass an extensive range of nearly 400 events and activities held throughout New York City. These proceedings will be accessible through various channels\, with key sessions streamed online for remote participation. The lineup includes entirely digital events incorporated into the program. \nA pivotal moment within the week is the Climate Week NYC Opening Ceremony\, scheduled for September 17. This ceremony commands considerable attention and features substantial announcements\, dialogues\, and conversations with global leaders hailing from business\, government\, and the climate community. Distinguished figures such as Prince Charles\, Tim Cook\, Jacinda Ardern\, Kristalina Georgieva\, and others have graced the stage in past editions. \nThe Opening Ceremony this year will grapple with three fundamental queries: \n1. How can investments be strategically directed\, and those with vested interests be held accountable\, given the urgency of climate action?\n2. While solutions to the climate crisis are available\, how can they be effectively implemented?\n3. What strides have been made\, and how can the collective determination of the climate community continue to drive meaningful climate action? \nSpanning September 18 and 19\, 2023\, the Climate Group hosts The Hub Live\, gathering over 1\,000 influential leaders from various sectors. This segment comprises sessions addressing key themes\, yet to be disclosed. \nThe theme “We Can. We Will” epitomizes the spirit of the event. It reflects a resolute commitment\, an unwavering focus\, a hopeful promise\, and a collective call to action. This theme encompasses both immediate action and a forward-looking perspective\, encompassing new prospects and initiatives. \nWhile promising strides have been witnessed in domains like renewables and financing\, the event underscores the necessity to persistently advance. The upcoming phase mandates a thorough examination of the path forward: amplifying investments in sustainability\, pioneering novel solutions\, translating intentions into tangible actions\, exploring fresh opportunities\, and collectively dismantling barriers. \nForecasts anticipate that this year’s Climate Week NYC will surpass the impact of the transformative 2022 edition. Business leaders\, policy-makers\, community representatives\, and civil society advocates are poised to harness this week as a rallying point\, fostering substantial contributions to the pivotal goal of halving carbon emissions by 2030 and progressing toward a net-zero future by 2050.

SUMMARY:Ripple Effect: Exploring the Impact of Water Risk on Credit
DESCRIPTION:In a recent research report\, Moody’s highlighted that the impact of water management risks on credit is poised to increase significantly. This escalation arises from the dual pressures of escalating water demand and the compounding effects of climate change\, which particularly intensifies water scarcity in regions already under high water stress. The report identifies eight sectors collectively holding nearly $2 trillion in debt that are particularly susceptible to these risks. These risks extend beyond climate-related concerns and encompass a range of water-related issues such as accessibility\, availability\, efficiency\, pollution\, and pricing. \nAs the repercussions of insufficient water management practices become more pronounced in both financial and societal spheres\, comprehending the influence of these risks on corporations\, governments\, and other entities issuing debt is now of paramount importance. \nA panel consisting of Moody’s analysts and climate experts invites participation to delve into the subsequent focal points: \n1. Amplification of Water Supply-Demand Imbalances due to Climate Change: The panel will discuss the exacerbating effects of climate change on the existing imbalances between water supply and demand. \n2. Translation of Water Management Issues into Credit Risks: The discussion will explore how the challenges associated with water management can be transformed into credit risks for entities that issue debt. \n3. Constructing Resilience: Government and Corporate Strategies: Participants will have the opportunity to explore potential measures that governments and companies can adopt to enhance their resilience in the face of these challenges.

SUMMARY:Implementing the CSRD: Preparing for a New Era of ESG Disclosure
DESCRIPTION:Join ERM and the SustainAbility Institute for a discussion about the Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive (CSRD). \n\n\n\n\nThe CSRD is the most far-reaching piece of legislation on ESG disclosure and raises many questions: Which companies will the Directive apply to and when? How will it impact the companies with subsidiaries in Europe? What steps should companies take to prepare for its implementation? The webinar will discuss these questions and more through discussion with ERM’s subject matter experts and panelists from German chemicals company BASF and British software company Sage. Panelists and experts will expand on expected updates to the CSRD\, the importance of double materiality\, and share ERM’s recommended four-step process for CSRD alignment.

SUMMARY:Climate & Development Finance: What Works?
DESCRIPTION:With the world moving from global warming to “global boiling\,” to United Nations Secretary-General António Guterres’s dramatic description\, there is more urgency than ever to unlock the capital needed for the transition to a net-zero economy. That will mean not only increasing funding commitments but also deploying financing for climate and sustainable development in the most efficient and effective way possible. While the development community knows what it needs to do\, the question now is how to do it. \nProduced in partnership with:
