Climate Change

The Economist’s Climate Risk Summit: North America will share insights on how business leaders can manage and mitigate the impact of physical and transition risks posed by climate change.

Companies already grappling with these issues now face an immediate hit to revenue and profits from the coronavirus. As they respond, they face new hurdles to overhauling strategic risk management, but they also have an opportunity to “build back better.”

Over four days, The Economist will ask how governments and industry are responding to the impact of physical and transition risk. How should they model their exposure? How do regulators understand the risks and exercise their authority to strengthen disclosures? The program will explore federal, state, and municipality-level management of climate risks and ask where the unmet needs are greatest.
