Climate change
As the UK experiences more extreme heat events, the associated health risks are becoming more evident. Actuary Will Stobbs explores how rising temperatures interact with existing social and economic inequalities, drawing on GAD analysis to show where high heat exposure and deprivation overlap across England's neighbourhoods.
Mind the (data) gap. Qualitative climate scenario analysis can help public sector organisations understand risks and build resilience when the data needed for robust quantification is limited.
GAD's new climate and health group brings together expert analysis to help public sector clients understand climate-related health risks in long-term planning.
Climate change has been identified as the century's most important health threat. GAD explores why cross-sector collaboration is essential to protect communities and build resilience in a warming climate.
Climate scenario analysis helps public sector organisations turn long-term climate uncertainty into actionable insights for today's decisions, supporting resilience and adaptation planning.
GAD actuary Will Stobbs was at the forefront of a team that set up and ran a recent major climate conference. The event attracted notable speakers and exhibitors from across government, the public sector and academia.
As the effects of climate change become more obvious, there is a growing urgency to understand climate-related risks and how they might evolve. Here we look at the uncertainties associated with future climate change; from the emissions pathways we might take to how climate processes are modelled.
The African Risk Capacity (ARC) organisation marks 10 years of providing rapid prearranged finance following extreme weather events and GAD works with ARC and others. In this blog we look at the use of parametric insurance to deliver support to the most vulnerable areas of the world.
“Net zero” has become a buzz phrase for climate-conscious companies over the past few years and has also infiltrated the world of investing. However, when it comes to investing, net zero targets are perhaps not the saviour that they seem to be in the corporate world. Find out more in this blog.
In this follow up blog, we look at the challenges public sector organisations can face when implementing TCFD recommendations. We focus on scenario analysis as it can be a complex aspect of the recommendations.
