Rowan Douglas, Head of the Climate and Resilience Hub at Willis Towers Watson joined us as part of our ILS NYC 2021 virtual conference, providing an update on his important work at the intersection of climate science, capital, policy and risk.  Rowan explained the importance of access to deep capital in financing for protection against climate risk and increasing climate resilience.   Having spoken at our first ever ILS NYC conference five years ago, Rowan highlighted the need for industry engagement on climate matters.   He gave us his updated thoughts on the important role of the capital markets in financing support for the closure of climate protection gaps.   Alongside insurance and reinsurance, Rowan sees an important place that the insurance-linked securities (ILS) market can participate in helping the world become more resilient to climate risks.  The conversation also discussed the important topic of credit and how embedding climate into broader global financial credit decisions could be a tipping point for the need for climate risk transfer capital.
