Climate Risk
The occurrence of extreme climate events, as well as a disorderly transition to a low-carbon economy, can have destabilizing effects on the financial system. Climate-related risk analysis explores the potential impact on the safety and soundness of individual financial institutions and how climate events might have broader financial stability implications for the banking system.
