Banks from Africa and Middle East (AME) are facing an increasing demand to accelerate their climate mitigation efforts, driven by the impacts of climate-related and transition risks on their portfolios, international climate agreements, NDC financing needs, as well as evolving public policies and regulations. UNEP FI developed the Climate Mitigation Journey (CMJ), a climate strategy framework outlining the business capabilities banks need to build and iterate for years to come as they are looking to advance their path to net zero. To address the knowledge needs of African and Middle Eastern banks, this webinar on climate risk assessment and scenario analysis will provide:
- an overview of physical and transition risks and their implications for AME
- the regulatory landscape for climate risk reporting
- the tools and methodologies for climate scenario analysis.
This webinar is part of a series of regional sessions on various climate-related topics relevant to the needs of banks from AME.
