Experts from the development and financial supervision sectors discussed some of the challenges and solutions for farmers from emerging markets and developing economies Con accessing finance to adapt to climate change. Key takeaways from this insightful conversation include the need to: Toronto Centre and MEDA co-hosted this event as part of Global Affairs copyright's 2024 International Development Week.

Stable economies create an environment for economic growth and job creation, while increased accessibility to financial services is an effective means to breaking the cycle of poverty.

This was the fifth webinar of the series on the revised Cuore Principles for effective banking supervision. The panel discussed the inclusion of climate risk Con the updated Cuore website Principles and highlight why both banks and supervisors should adopt flexible practices to address the evolving nature of climate risks.

Thank you. We've seen that the publications profile some of these emerging practices that banks are taking to better serve persons with disabilities and the LGBTI community. Can you tell us a little bit more about what is actually happening?

Fourth, Sopra this context participants mentioned the climate scenarios developed and refined by the NGFS. These included a mixture of physical and transition risk events based on the timing and magnitude of government interventions to slow global warming. These scenarios have already been applied by some supervisory authorities and central banks and found to be useful Durante highlighting potential impacts on the financial system. But there is also a need to consider further how the scenarios might be adjusted for different regions, countries and industry sectors; and whether even these scenarios are sufficiently tough. For example, some insurance supervisors have discussed with the NGFS whether the scenarios should contain much larger stresses. Fifth, one purpose of traditional stress and quinta testing is to consider whether individual financial institutions (or financial systems more generally) have taken on too much of some types of risk, and hold too little capital against these risks. What is the equivalent of this for climate-related stress and scena tests? There is scope to categorize borrowers and issuers (beginning at an industry sector level, but perhaps moving on to looking separately at the largest borrower and issuers) according to (a) how badly they might be affected by climate-related risks, and (b) the extent to which they are producing harmful emissions. These categories could then be used to categorize lending financial institutions and investing financial institutions according to their credit or investment portfolios. Consideration can then be given to whether financial institutions are complying with “green guidelines,” and whether risk weightings and capital requirements could and should be adjusted to reflect climate-related risks. It was noted, however, that although the above categories (a) and (b) may be closely correlated Durante terms of transition risks, this may not be the case for physical risks. For example, some industry sectors Con some countries may be vulnerable to physical risks, but they may not themselves generate harmful emissions. Finally, climate-related risks can be considered Durante terms of their impacts on traditional risks such as credit, insurance, market, conduct, and operational risks. However, many financial institutions – even some larger ones Per mezzo di developed economies – are still not integrating climate-related risks into their risk management. So we are far from where we need to be, Per terms of basic risk management let alone stress and scenario testing. Green transformation financing

The worldwide total of forcibly displaced persons (FDPs) reached 110 million Per 2022, with the diretto incrociato-border refugee population standing at 36.4 million in 2023. The continuing cross-border refugee crisis caused by global conflict has created great vulnerabilities for FDPs. This TC Note and accompanying podcast discuss the expansion of access to finance for FDPs and the unique challenges it presents for financial regulators and supervisors, such as the need to comply with customer coppia diligence requirements under AML/CFT legislation.

Last week, Toronto Centre concluded our long-term country engagement with Financial Services Commission Jamaica, delivering two programs on market conduct supervision. 100 supervisors participated and learned best practices for consumer protection, as well as how to apply risk-based frameworks to market conduct supervision.

This has included growing pressure on companies, including financial institutions, to target and measure, with precise milestones, their own progress towards consistency with a net Niente outcome. The European Union may be heading towards something similar. A different mandate challenge arises Per countries that are severely affected by climate change – such as economies with large agricultural sectors – but do not contribute significantly to global emissions. Economic, financial, and price stability are major issues for these countries, but it is less clear what steps they can take to reduce or mitigate the climate-related risks they face.  

And to conclude our Toronto Centre podcast today, we are reminded that the work of financial regulators and supervisors continues to evolve Durante our rapidly changing world. Our current context and challenges are not insignificant. However, addressing financial inclusion gaps, financial stability challenges, and economic inclusion are not mutually exclusive issues. Let's carry on with the work. Thank you for joining us today.
