As a member of the AIGCC, Aon will contribute to the development of market-based climate solutions for increasing resilience against climate risks, while unlocking new sustainable growth opportunities.
Innovation in data, analytics and risk transfer solutions enable Aon to help clients accelerate their investments in climate resiliency and aid in the transition to a net zero economy.
“Addressing climate risks requires collaboration between asset owners, insurers, lenders, and governments,” said Dr. Tom Mortlock, head of climate analytics for Asia Pacific at Aon. “Insuring and financing the energy transition is essential to mitigate the impacts of climate change while driving economic growth. As investor sentiment continues to shift capital towards a greener future, actionable insights, and appropriate risk transfer solutions are crucial for companies looking to seize these opportunities. Aon is looking forward to contributing to AIGCC’s efforts to help investors and companies make better decisions as they navigate the transition to a net-zero future.”
According to Aon’s 2024 Climate and Catastrophe Insight, the insurance gap in Asia is one of the largest in the world, with only 14 percent of economic losses covered by insurance in 2023. This makes investing in areas of high climate risk across the region a potentially volatile activity. On top of this, climate change is increasing the underlying risk profile in various areas of the region.
Rebecca Mikula-Wright, CEO of AIGCC, said: “We are pleased to welcome Aon as a member of AIGCC. Industry participation is essential to achieving meaningful progress on climate action across Asia, and we welcome Aon’s contributions that will enhance our collective impact. We look forward to working together with Aon to drive forward solutions for a low-carbon and climate-resilient future, fostering meaningful and accelerated progress.”
