Climate Risk and Financial Risk


The impact of climate risk on the macroeconomy arises when the climate can have an impact if it leads to an increased frequency of extreme weather events. Those events are ‘negative supply shocks’ with inverse effects on output and prices. They very much complicate the conduct of monetary policy. Some small and medium-sized emerging economies may be especially exposed and adjust their policy frameworks accordingly.

Therefore, financial and systematic risk management should internalize climate risks within financial supervision. In this context, here some recommended articles about the Climate Risk and the Financial Stability:
  1. Climate change hazards intensifying. Increasing effects of climate change call for better systematic risk management, more adaptation and accelerated decarbonization (McKinsey).
  2. Climate risk and response: Physical hazards and socioeconomic impacts (McKinsey).
  3. Assessing Climate-Change Risk by Stress Testing for Financial Resilience (IMF Blog).
  4. The green swan. Central banking and financial stability in the age of climate change (BIS).
  5. Central banks and climate change (VOXEU).
