This eCourse consists of two modules on climate risk measurement and management. Climate risk measurement is a vital process that enables stakeholders to assess and manage the diverse risks associated with climate change. While it is a relatively new discipline, numerous tools and techniques have emerged to support measurement of climate risk. Like any tools, there are pros and cons to their use, and it is essential that, to use them appropriately, banks and other stakeholders understand how they are constructed, as well as their limitations and drawbacks. Module 1 provides detailed insights into climate risk measurement and the main assessment tools and techniques used for that purpose.

Module 2 examines how banks are managing climate risk, including the tools and techniques they are using and the issues and challenges they are dealing with. The actual or potential impacts of climate change can affect the viability of individual banks as well as the banking system as a whole. In response, banks are investing time and resources to understand, measure, manage, monitor, and report both current and potential new risk exposures. But they face a number of challenges in this regard, as well as increasing levels of external scrutiny and challenge.

- Recognize the need to measure climate risk and the main considerations and challenges in that regard
