21/11/2022 (Agence Europe) – On the occasion of the United Nations Climate Change Conference 2022 (COP27) (see EUROPE 13065/5), the European Insurance and Occupational Pensions Authority (EIOPA) underlined, in a press release on Friday 18 November, its commitment to supporting the insurance and pensions sectors in tackling climate change. It recalled the work already done in this direction this year, in particular the guidance on the own risk and solvency assessment (ORSA) (see EUROPE 13006/5). EIOPA will publish in December the first European-wide dashboard on the natural catastrophe insurance protection gap, in line with the commitment made at COP26 in Glasgow. It will present the latest developments in its work on sustainable finance at its Sustainable Finance Conference on Wednesday 7 December. (AD)
