PwC to debut ESG digital experience in Monte Carlo

The critical role of the insurance industry in enabling the transition to net zero will be the topic of a special PwC session at Reinsurance Rendez-Vous 2022.

PwC has developed an interactive, digital experience where organisations can explore the risks and opportunities that the transition to a low carbon economy presents to underwriting.

Re/insurers will come away with personalised insights on how trends in real estate, automotive, energy and technology sectors could impact the growth and profitability of their lines of business, and ideas for how to participate in the economy’s transition.

Jim Bichard, global insurance leader at PwC UK, said: “Given the importance of decarbonisation and ESG as a board-level topic for so many organisations, and the significant interest from our re/insurance clients on how the transition to net zero will impact underwriting, we are pleased to be able to debut this experience in Monte Carlo.”

He added: “We believe PwC’s unique insight across global industries can help insurance executives and underwriters gain a deeper understanding of the changes to their clients' business. Insurance growth strategies cannot ignore how business is responding to government, market and consumer pressures around climate.”

Domenico del Re, director of sustainability at PwC UK, continued: “Re/insurance underwriters have a critical role to play in the transition to net zero, for example as enablers of climate technology needed to manage that transition efficiently. As climate change challenges grow ever more urgent, it is climate tech innovations that are helping to reduce emissions and accelerate decarbonisation. Insurers can play an important role in enabling these technologies, and need also to be aware of the wider changes that these key sectors are undergoing.”

PwC’s session in Monte Carlo is for chief executives, CUOs, CROs and their teams, and other executives in the sector. Participants will hear from PwC global sector leaders on net zero and will receive the results from an interactive experience exploring how the sector trends can impact their business.

Underwriting the transition to Net Zero takes place on Monday, 12 September between 10am-10:45am OR 1:30pm-2:15pm at the Hotel Hermitage in Monte Carlo.
