Governance and ComplianceClimate Risk and Adaptation Planning
Climate risk reaches an organisation as flooded roads, an interrupted water supply, a damaged substation and an insurer declining to renew, which makes it an operational and financial matter long before it is a reporting one. This course covers assessing and managing it. Delegates work through the distinction between physical and transition risk and how each arrives, scenario analysis at a level a business can actually use, and vulnerability assessment for assets, supply chains and the communities operations depend on. Adaptation options and the cost of acting early against reacting are covered. Disclosure frameworks are addressed, including what a lender or investor now asks for. The course closes on integrating climate into existing risk management rather than running it separately.
