Sandy Trust, Head of Organisational Risk at M&G, and Lucy Saye, Actuarial Manager at Deloitte, and previous chair at the IFoA Sustainability Board, present the 'Climate Scorpion' report. This report follows the IoFA and University of Exeter's 'The Emperor's New Climate Scenarios' paper, challenging the accuracy of NGFS and CBES scenarios. In this in-depth FinextraTV Unplugged interview with Richard Peers, ResponsibleRisk, they delve into tipping points, cascading risks, and the potential for positive tipping points, exploring the uncertainty surrounding Carbon budgets and their underlying assumptions. Given the Earth's complexity, climate modeling remains uncertain. The interview discusses how financial institutions and corporations can plan amid this uncertainty.
In this episode of Unplugged, Ruth Wandhofer, Chair of the Ubiquitech Group, discusses the UK’s transition from Fintech to “Ubiquitech”, the era of ubiquitous technology, and the road map to ensuring a sustainable, inclusive, and accessible digital economy. We review strategic recommendations for cyber security, digital systems in trade, and the digital skills education needed to support the UK’s digital economy.
