Abstract

Climate change challenges are formidable, and especially so for the insurance sector for the economy-wide risk management role it plays. Extreme events, depicted by acute climate risk, and steady deterioration in climate elements, captured as chronic climate risk, pose specific challenges to different segments of the insurance sector. We review these challenges and mitigation, adaptation, and innovation responses being developed, as well as highlight the need for future research and advances to support a resilient global insurance sector.
