A New Tool for a Changing Climate
The Actuarial Society of South Africa (ASSA), in partnership with Old Mutual as the research sponsor, is proud to announce the ASSA Climate Index. An innovative new resource that empowers professionals, businesses, and the public with data-driven insights to make informed decisions on climate risk.
The Index provides a clear, quantitative look at climate change trends, offering a robust tool for actuaries, financial professionals, government affiliates, and environmental journalists to better understand and model a changing climate’s financial and social impacts. Its core purpose is to provide a transparent, accessible, and scientifically grounded view of climate risk, which is essential for effective long-term planning and strategy.
We invite all stakeholders to explore the ASSA Climate Index and utilise this powerful new tool to navigate the complexities of climate risk.
