## Resource

In this episode of Climate Economics with Fexingo, Lucas and Luna explore how the insurance industry is being reshaped by climate risk and the rise of 'green insurance'. They focus on the specific case of Swiss Re's new 'Net Zero Insurance' product — a commercial policy that ties premium discounts to corporate carbon reduction targets. The hosts break down how this is more than a marketing gimmick: it's a structural shift in underwriting, with major implications for corporate risk management and the broader economy. They discuss the economics of insurance-linked securities (ILS) that fund renewable energy projects, and how the $7 trillion global insurance industry is becoming a de facto climate regulator. Listeners will learn why a factory's carbon footprint now affects its insurance premium, and how this could accelerate decarbonization faster than any government mandate. #GreenInsurance #ClimateRisk #SwissRe #NetZeroInsurance #InsuranceLinkedSecurities #CarbonPremium #ClimateEconomics #Underwriting #CorporateRisk #Decarbonization #RenewableEnergy #RiskManagement #InsuranceIndustry #ClimatePolicy #Sustainability #Economics #FexingoBusiness #BusinessPodcast Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
