On 18 April 2023 WTW hosted an in-person event titled Climate liability: Time to future-proof your business. The event focused on climate-related legal exposures that have increased significantly over the years, with insightful discussions from WTW climate leaders alongside selected academia, civil society, analysts, insurers, and sector experts.
Attendees learnt how to make empowered decisions to help future-proof and prepare their organisation to manage risks, minimize potential climate-related liabilities, and evolve their business to successfully transition to a low-carbon net-zero economy.
