Climate risk: from environmental issue to financial priority

Financing the Energy Transition: Insights for the finance community

Join us for a popular 1-hour “Financing the Energy Transition“ event on 23 January 2025 in Amsterdam or via live stream.

The upcoming Financing the energy transition event in our finance community series will examine how to address the growing impacts of physical and transition risks - arising from extreme weather events, regulatory changes, and the net-zero transition - on financial systems.

Held in Amsterdam and available via live stream, our expert panel will bring diverse perspectives, skills, and experiences to explore these pressing issues. Our fireside chat will feature:

  • Luke Disney, Executive Vice President Sustainability and Lead Climate, Rabobank Group
  • Prof. mr. M.A.M. (Marjolein) Dieperink, Energy Partner, Norton Rose Fulbright LLP
  • Mark Fisher, Senior Principal Consultant and Head of Climate Risk Advisory, DNV
  • Martijn Maandag, Director Due Diligence, Global Key Account Manager, DNV

Increasingly frequent extreme weather events, such as floods, wildfires, and landslides, are causing damage to property, land, and infrastructure, presenting significant physical risks to assets and supply chains. Meanwhile, transition risks, driven by regulatory, legal, and market changes associated with the shift to a net-zero environment, are becoming more prominent. Both types of risks result from climate change and are set to impact financial systems worldwide.

When physical and/or transition risks materialize, business disruption is likely - whether in the short, medium or long term. How should these risks be accounted for? How can we mitigate or incorporate them effectively in strategic decision-making? What practical steps should be taken in the investment process to account for these risks? Let’s explore together.
