This session is organized with the support of Deloitte Climate & Sustainability.

Climate risk assessment of companies is increasingly becoming pivotal in decision-making at multiple levels to boost the private sector climate action and green the financial system. Companies need to understand their physical and transition risk exposure to plan adequate investments; financial operators use climate risk information in portfolio management; banks are interested in evaluating the counterparty risk induced by climate change; regulators are committed to preventing climate and policy-induced systemic crises. Whilst all these actors perceive the urgency of having reliable, timely, and comparable data on company climate risk assessment, this information is not yet available. This policy session aims to bring together people from the academic and policy worlds to debate state of the art in climate risk assessment approaches, identify gaps, and provide tentative pathways to fill them.

Gender and diversity have been discussed and deliberated time and again in our modern and postmodern discourses but the idea of diversity and inclusiveness in our mainstream professional circles is still a distant dream. The DEI committee in order to break the ice and bring the burning issues on the front has taken an initiative and attempt to make our world more inclusive to build a better social order. In this session we will discuss the extensive literature on Inclusion and Diversity in the field of environmental and resource economics.
