  • This shift aims to address climate risks and capitalise on cleantech opportunities. Insurers entering the cleantech market are adopting proactive underwriting and risk modeling based on science and engineering rather than historical data,

The article from MSN discusses how insurance companies are increasingly adopting science-based cleantech risk modeling to better assess and manage risks associated with climate change. Traditional risk models are becoming outdated as climate patterns shift, leading insurers to integrate advanced technologies like AI, machine learning, and real-time data analytics to predict and mitigate risks more accurately. This shift is driven by the need to understand the impacts of climate change on physical assets, from natural disasters to gradual changes like sea level rise. Insurers are now using these models to price policies more accurately, reduce exposure to high-risk areas, and encourage sustainable practices among policyholders. The adoption of cleantech not only helps in managing financial risks but also aligns with global sustainability goals, promoting resilience against climate-related events.
