Extreme weather is no longer a future scenario – it’s impacting businesses today.

MSCI’s latest research What the Market Thinks: How Global Insurers Are Responding to Rising Physical Risk synthesizes insights from more than 50 of the world’s largest insurers on how the industry is adapting to escalating extreme weather and climate-related hazards.

Join David Carlin, Founder D.A.Carlin and Company, Pam Palena, Insurance Research Lead, MSCI, alongside Butch Bacani, Head of Insurance at the United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP) and Enrique Flores Diaz, Global Climate Risk & Resilience Lead, Allianz for a virtual discussion on May 6 at 2:00 PM BST / 9:00 AM ET.

In this session, we will explore insurers’ perspectives on the industry’s readiness for rising physical risk, the growing shift toward layered intelligence and geospatial analytics, and the fundamental challenges of forward-looking risk assessment. We will also examine emerging commercial opportunities in resilience advisory services and parametric products, as well as what the next phase of physical-risk integration looks like across underwriting, pricing and capital allocation.

Together, we will discuss what these findings mean in practice and how insurers can move from risk assessment toward resilience leadership in an era of intensifying physical risk.
