UK Climate Financial Risk Forum Publishes Guides on Climate Risk
October 10, 2024The U.K. Climate Financial Risk Forum (CFRF) has published three guides to help the financial sector develop its approach to climate-related financial risks and opportunities. The CFRF is a financial services industry forum established jointly by the U.K. Financial Conduct Authority and Prudential Regulation Authority and is comprised of senior representatives from across the financial services industry. The three guides are: (i) Nature-related Risk: Handbook for Financial Institutions - this provides an introduction for financial institutions to help frame nature as a risk, and discusses emerging practices in incorporating nature into financial risk management; (ii) Short-Term Scenarios - this discusses the use cases of short-term scenarios for banks/asset managers/insurers to provide more guidance to firms; and (iii) Mobilising Adaptation Finance to Build Resilience - this provides guidance for the industry to assess the physical risks they face and to facilitate increased levels of investment into climate adaptation to respond to those risks as an opportunity.
