The executive challenge

The problem this program solves

Climate shocks are repricing assets across your portfolio, but climate insurance risk still sits in a CSR annex rather than in the risk register where decisions are made. The talent that could build your climate insurance capability goes where the data, the mandate and the budget already exist. This is where climate insurance stops being brochure-ware and becomes the institution's licence to grow, borrow and trade.

Context

Why this matters now

The first assurance engagements on climate insurance statements are arriving — and finding data that cannot yet defend itself.
Climate shocks are already on the balance sheet: climate insurance risk does not wait for policy.
Climate Insurance disclosure is becoming mandatory: ISSB-aligned standards are entering African regulation market by market.

Capability

What you will be able to do

  • Prepare climate insurance data and governance for third-party assurance.
  • Read materiality in climate insurance: what matters financially, and to whom.
  • Build a credible climate insurance transition plan — targets, baselines, sequencing and capital.
  • Lead climate insurance as strategy and risk, not as brochure-ware.

The IPAT Course Standard

The five-day journey

Each day is a deliberate progression in managerial capability — from strategic context, to analytical frameworks, to applied practice, to executive judgement under pressure, to a capstone that produces something your organisation keeps.

Your decision: Run the portfolio triage, set the refinancing strategy, and decide what the communities and the lender hear.
