2019 seems to have passed extremely quickly. Notwithstanding the politics, it’s been a\u00a0remarkable year for climate change and for open banking.<\/p>\n

    1. <\/a>Icebreaker One \u2014 bridging the gaps between finance\u00a0and the climate crisis<\/h3>\n

    \"\"<\/a>About 18 months ago, working with Climate KIC, we started to bring people together from the financial communities (specifically insurance) to try and work out how to influence\u00a0the greatest economic\u00a0movement.<\/p>\n

    The IPCC report then helped by setting our collective remaining carbon budget deadline to about a decade.\u00a0To think about this a bit differently, that’s about 4,000 days.<\/a><\/p>\n

    In March, we named our new project Icebreaker One<\/strong>, launched its website<\/a>\u00a0<\/strong>and gathered a brilliant Constellation team to draft\u00a0discussion papers<\/a>\u00a0around Climate, Environment, Finance, Infrastructure and\u00a0Data (aka ‘CEFID<\/a>‘).<\/p>\n

    In April, 34 banks\u2014including the Bank of England\u2014started to raise the flag<\/a> around the economic risks of climate change (about $20tr<\/a>\u00a0and counting<\/a>).<\/p>\n

    In May, we presented our work<\/a>\u00a0(with open Google Docs,\u00a0PDFs) at the UN Disaster Risk Reduction Global Platform\u2014a gathering of about 3,000 people in Geneva around all the fun things that are broken: ranging from climate to species collapse to meteors. This aligned the\u00a0launch of a new framework: the Global Risk Assessment Framework<\/a> (GRAF). It aims to improve the understanding and management of current and future risks, at all scales, to better manage uncertainties and mobilise people, innovation and finance by:<\/p>\n
