Learning outcomes of the learning unit
The goal of this course is to teach students the regulatory and methodological aspects associated to climate-related financial risks in asset management at large. It should provide students with the needed competences to answer (among others) to the following questions
- What makes climate-related financial risks unique? What are its drivers? How are physical and transition risks distinguished?
- How do we measure physical and transition risks, and how do we incorporate such risks in traditional credit and market risks assessments?
- How to conduct scenario analyses, stress-testing and sensitivity analyses for climate-related risks and exposures?
- What are the regulatory obligations/good practices of financial institutions regarding climate-related risks?
