Climate Risk
Navigating climate-related financial risks with Amalthea platform.
The New Paradigm in Financial Risk: Climate Risk
Financial institutions are now confronted with a new, formidable class of risk: Climate Risk. Prompted by both regulatory imperatives and economic incentives, banks must proactively and simultaneously manage two key dimensions—Transition Risk and Physical Risk—that can significantly impact their asset portfolios across investments, loans, trade finance, and capital markets.
A Focused Challenge for Banks: Climate Risk in the Banking Book
For banks in particular, climate risk is not a distant future consideration but an immediate factor affecting the short to medium term stability of the banking book. It is crucial that banks not only incorporate climate risk into the probability of default for borrowers, but also align with evolving regulatory frameworks. These include climate stress-tests and the evaluation of climate risk under Pillar I and II capital requirements.
