Educational training Session - GIIA & ESI Monitor
Guernsey has achieved another world first with the creation of an ESG framework for insurers, designed by the Guernsey International Insurance Association (GIIA) with the aim of helping member organisations to manage ESG opportunities. In a session only available to those attending in person on-island, GIIA Chairman Mark Elliott and Deputy Chair Adele Gale discuss the framework, outline the key pillars, how businesses can apply it in practice, and how some of the most commonly written insurance policies can tie in with the UN Sustainable Development Goals. We will also hear from co-host Ian Corder, Director of Standards and Operations at ESI Monitor, who worked with GIIA on the framework and accreditation process.

The insurance sector plays a critical role in the transition to a low-carbon, resilient and sustainable global economy, both in terms of the risks it covers and the investments it makes. Dr Phil Klotzbach, Colorado State University explains how the insurance industry is already experiencing the impacts of climate change, and how increasing ocean temperatures are likely to fuel more destructive and powerful hurricanes.
