The IFoA's Climate Change Reporting and Disclosure Working Party has recently published a series of articles in The Actuary and the British Actuarial Journal. These articles set out the actuarial implications of climate change disclosure requirements.

The working party is made up of a range of backgrounds and industries, including consulting, pensions, life and general insurance. Our conclusions apply generally to actuaries with an interest in sustainability and specifically to general insurance actuaries and insurers.

In this session we propose building on our reports to identify specific potential impacts on general insurance firms and actuaries, by considering:

• What are the current reporting requirements and what do they require?
• What are the incoming reporting requirements relevant to UK actuaries?
• What do actuaries need to be thinking about now to meet these requirements?
• Why should actuaries be involved in sustainability data and reporting and what benefits does the actuarial skillset bring?

Our presenters cover a range of industry initiatives and can offer deep insights into industry-specific reporting requirements.

Target audience and assumed knowledge level: No specialist knowledge required.
