As climate impacts intensify, financial institutions are under growing pressure to embed adaptation and resilience into strategy, risk management, underwriting, and capital allocation.

This workshop convenes senior leaders from banking, insurance, investment, and policy to examine how climate risk is reshaping portfolios and long-term balance sheets. Through focused discussion, participants will explore the financial case for adaptation, the challenge of valuing loss avoidance, and the practical steps needed to strengthen resilience across institutions, markets, and supply chains.

Why attend?

Climate adaptation is becoming a core financial issue, not a peripheral sustainability discussion. Institutions are increasingly being asked to understand how physical and transition risks affect credit quality, liquidity, insurability, investment decisions, and long-term enterprise value.

This roundtable will help participants:

• Assess the financial implications of climate risk across balance sheets, portfolios, and operations.
• Examine the value of resilience investments and the challenge of pricing avoided losses.
• Understand the bank-insurance nexus as insurance gaps and rising premiums influence financing decisions.
• Explore practical adaptation signals through green bond markets, capex strategies, and emerging technology solutions.
• Engage with peers and policymakers on the regulatory and market frameworks shaping adaptation finance in the UK, EU, and beyond.

Places are limited for this workshop to preserve the quality of discussion and peer exchange. Register now to secure your seat for this focused London Climate Action Week roundtable.
