Investing in Resilience for a New Weather Reality

Extreme weather events are repricing assets, disrupting supply chains, and impacting urban centers, coastal economies, and industrial hubs. The costs of reactive disaster recovery can crowd out calls for reimagining how risks are measured, how infrastructure and assets can be made resilient, and how public and private investment can be mobilized at the scale the new weather reality demands. This session brings together senior policymakers and leaders from finance, insurance, and business to examine emerging solutions and define what investing in resilience means and how it can ensure that areas and communities remain livable, investable, and economically productive. With this approach, rather than being a cost center, resilience becomes a long-term value proposition for investors, governments, and communities alike.
