Description
ABI CONFERENCE WILL EXAMINE CLIMATE CHANGE AND ITS COSTS TO BUSINESS
The ABI’s third Climate Change Conference on 13 September will focus on how climate change is affecting weather patterns and increasing costs (the recent UK floods have cost insurers in excess of £3 billion). The conference, which will feature a speech by HRH, The Prince of Wales, will also see the launch of a major new industry climate change initiative and the publication of ABI research identifying how insurance can help promote climate-friendly behaviour by homeowners and businesses.
Other speakers at the Conference include; Archie Kane, Chairman of the ABI; James Smith, Chairman of Shell UK; and Peter Hubbard, Chief Executive of AXA Insurance. The Conference will be chaired by the BBC News’s Environment and Science Correspondent, David Shukman.
