------------------------------------------------------------------
General Information
At this *Workshop “Climate Change and Insurance” (CCI 2024)* the main
aim is to enhance understanding of climate change impacts on the
insurance industry. Without proper management of its climate risks, the
insurance sector is vulnerable and may simply collaps under the weight
of underestimated claims - such a scenario would have catastrophic
implications for business and society.
The three-day event CCI 2024 is designed to initiate and strengthen
collaborations between practicing actuaries and academics, nationally
and internationally. We encourage both - practitioners and researchers -
for *submissions* related to the following themes, although any other
topic addressing climate-related risks is also welcome:
- Climate modelling
- The role of actuaries in handling the climate change
- Catastrophe risks and climate change
- Impact of climate change on mortality
- Pricing of climate change risks
- Sustainable finance
The workshop starts with an introductory talk to Climate Change and
Insurance and offers plenary & contributed talks.
In the framework of a *panel discussion* on the topic "Climate Change
and Insurance: Past, Present and Future" we offer the conference
participants a platform for discussions with a number of renowned experts.
An *introductory mini-workshop on AI in Climate Risk* will complete the
program.
