Enabling a Just Transition Through Climate Insurance with Barclays

Ensuring the availability and affordability of climate insurance is crucial for protecting vulnerable populations and preventing anyone
from being left behind. By safeguarding these communities and alleviating the impacts of climate change, climate insurance can mobilise resources and foster inclusive growth. During the Business Fights Poverty Global Goals Summit 2024, five key action-oriented insights were presented to assist social impact leaders, insurance, finance and policymakers in implementing inclusive climate insurance strategies. These insights aim to ensure that such insurance solutions are both accessible to all and scalable, underpinning broader efforts to combat climate change impacts effectively.
