Abstract

Extreme weather events threated the banking sector through depreciation of collateral, increase of counterparty bankruptcies, misvaluation of securities held in bank portfolios, and increase of funding risk. At the same time, post-disaster reconstruction boosts the demand for credit, which, if met by banks, can increase their revenues and improve their profitability. Bank regulators around the globe are taking several measures to address climate risk exposure of banks, such as climate stress tests or climate scenario analyses. However, these exercises are still at an early stage and do not adequately quantify the complex relationships between disasters, banks, and the real economy.
