EVENT INVITE
Wednesday, September 16, 10:30 EDT / 15:30 BST
Join Climate Proof and Fathom ahead of New York Climate Week for an exclusive 60-minute webinar unpacking how banks are using catastrophe models to evaluate physical risk and identify financial opportunities.
Building on our recent cat model paper, this event is an opportunity to hear firsthand from banking practitioners on how they are approaching these tools, and what lessons they’ve learned integrating physical risk into lending, investing, and risk management workflows.
Moderated by Louie Woodall (Climate Proof), the expert panel features Dr. Oliver Wing (Fathom), Dr. Joe Moorhouse (BNP Paribas) and Dr. Nicola Wagner-Rundell (ING).
Tune in to understand how banks and insurers differ in their use of cat models, why Model Risk Management is a surmountable challenge to broader adoption, and what use cases cat models are being applied to right now.
