Flooding is one of the most pervasive and costly natural disasters worldwide. Over the past 30 years, it has caused more than USD 1.2 trillion in economic losses - and insured losses have surged by 30% in just the last decade according to the Swiss Re Institute. Increasingly, flood and climate risk are not just issues for insurers and public bodies - but for any institution with exposure to real assets. As our planet continues to warm and urban areas continue to be developed in high-risk flood zones, it's not enough to focus solely on emissions, energy transition, and mitigation but to develop strategies on how to adapt to a warming world and reduce the impact of extreme weather events.
Fathom, in partnership with Environmental Finance, has brought together experts from organisations across financial services in this state-of-the-market webinar on flood risk.
