The consequences of climate change are already observable and affect everyone, including in financial terms. Therefore, 24 out of a total of 27 banking supervisors are developing studies on climate-related financial risks, and the European Central Bank (ECB) will lead the design and launch of the first climate risk stress tests in 2022, to which significant institutions in the Banking Union will be subjected.
Against this backdrop, a new virtual session of the ‘Banking Lab’ will be held next Tuesday, March 8. You can find the program here.
During the session, there will be a panel discussion featuring Mauricio Ruiz, Head of the Stress Test Group at the Directorate General of Supervision of the Bank of Spain; Manuel Pérez de Castro, Group Risk VP – Enterprise Wide Risk Management at Banco Santander; and Adrià Pros, Director of ICAAP & Economic Capital at Banco Sabadell. Pedro Cadarso, Public Policy Advisor and expert in supervision and solvency issues at AEB, will moderate the panel.
Promoted by the AEB Foundation through CUNEF, the ‘Banking Lab’ has become, since its creation in 2018, a forum for reflection on various topics relevant to the banking sector.
