- Play your part in reducing the transition risk: Make sure that you’re adapting quickly enough as carbon-heavy industries fall out of favour with governments, investors, stakeholders and customers
- Address your direct exposure to climate-related risks: Avoid a crisis in property-cat underwriting as physical risk, inflation and higher claims costs combine in a perfect storm
- Raise the profile and reputation of the re/insurance sector: Reduce bad press and do social good by spearheading sustainability in your organisation that cascades down to your corporate clients
- Comply with regulators who are enforcing change: Be one step ahead of regulations, legislation, and guidelines from bodies such as the NAIC, the FDA and the EPA. Go beyond box-ticking, ensure you are future-proof and navigate the regulatory landscape
- Improve your top line and create brand differentiation: Sustainability and ESG are already a leading factor in policyholder purchasing decisions

Leading US insurers share methods to combat climate risk and develop future-proof decarbonization strategies.
You'll hear from these climate experts from leading US insurers
The Only Event in 2023 Dedicated to Mitigating Climate Risk for Insurance and the Transition to Net Zero
Intelligent Insurer’s inaugural Climate Risk and Sustainability in Re/Insurance conference (Chicago, November 13-14) is taking place at a time when Florida’s largest property insurer is now a state-backed institution: When leading US insurers have pulled out of insuring property in certain states altogether, and the threat of catastrophic weather events is more pronounced and unpredictable than ever. Climate change is having a tangible impact on the ability of insurers to protect their clients, and remain profitable. This conference will give you the tools to do both.
Climate Risk & Sustainability in Re/insurance USA is the only event of its kind that will give you the tools, contacts and technological insights you need in order to identify climate-focused commercial opportunities; understand and prepare for the impact of incoming climate and sustainability regulations and standards; and plan and implement decarbonisation strategies. Gain insight from senior-level experts at Allstate, Reinsurance Group of America, Manulife, Markel, Zurich North America, Crum & Forster, FM Global and more responsible for environment and energy, sustainability, climate risk and CAT modelling.
Countdown to Event:
5 Core Themes Being Addressed By Our Expert Speakers:
Maximise Profit by Identifying Climate-Focused Opportunities:
Pinpoint opportunities arising from a changing physical world: develop insurance solutions from green technologies, new product development and risk transfer solutions. Win the battle for competitive differentiation and play a role in positioning the re/insurance industry as a trailblazer in the transition to net zero
Plan and Implement Decarbonization Strategies:
Find out how to set and achieve net zero goals and integrate them into your operational footprint. Promote decarbonisation efforts for policyholders via reduced premiums, and support low-carbon technologies and startups with customised coverage
Manage the Impact of a Changing Climate and ESG Regulatory Landscape:
Identify incoming regulations, legislation and standards, and how these will impact your business and clients. Debate the value of shared reporting standards across states, and the legal implications of such standards on insurer
Mitigate Climate Risk:
How can you future-proof your business so that you’re prepared for the next five, 10, or 50 years? Supplement cat models with new data sources to get more complete coverage across perils and regions. Unlock parametric opportunities at scale by providing standardised parametric coverages, improved risk modelling and building awareness among insurers
Address Fundamental Underwriting Challenges:
Accurately assess the impact of climate risk on your asset portfolios in order to inform strategies which reduce exposure to floods, heat stress, hurricanes, typhoons, sea level rise, water stress and wildfires. Understand the tools and technologies that help underwriters integrate climate change into their risk selection decisions, manage portfolios and control the impact climate change has on their books
