fastTrack webinar: Building a resilient organisation - Adapting Today, Insuring Tomorrow: Real-World Climate Risk Guidance

Join us for an engaging climate risk webinar crafted by Zurich Insurance’s Climate Risk specialists and claims team. This session equips business leaders and risk managers with practical, action-oriented insights on navigating a changing climate. We’ll start with a clear overview of climate risk drivers—extreme weather, shifting regulatory landscapes, and escalating loss trends—and translate these into tangible steps your organisation can take today.

Andrew Forsyth from the UK Zurich Resilience Solutions team will share actionable strategies to enhance resilience, from vulnerability assessments and hazard mitigation to portfolio diversification and investment in climate-smart infrastructure. You’ll learn how to prioritise high-risk exposures, apply scenario planning, and integrate resilience into strategic decision-making.

Charlie Bush, Head of Large and Complex Claims (Zurich Insurance) will illuminate real-world claims trends, common causes of climate-related losses, and practical risk transfer solutions. Expect insight into Zurich’s approach on how we support customers build back better with a focus on longert term resilience to the effects of climate-related events.

Throughout the session, we’ll highlight case studies from varied sectors, practical checklists, and tools you can implement promptly. Attendees will gain a clearer understanding of how proactive adaptation, robust risk governance, and effective claims collaboration create stronger business continuity. Leave with concrete actions to reduce vulnerability, control costs, and safeguard communities in a more volatile world.

By the end of the session, you will be able to:

• Identify key climate risk drivers and their impacts on operations, assets, and communities.
• Prioritise exposures using vulnerability assessments and scenario planning to guide action.
• Apply practical adaptation measures to strengthen resilience and continuity
• Recognise climate-related claims trends to improve documentation and coverage alignment
• Collaborate effectively with insurers to optimise risk transfer, reduce loss severity, and close coverage gaps
