The European Central Bank has established a supervisory climate risk stress test to better understand banks’ capabilities, risk metrics, long-term risk projections and parameters in physical and transition risk scenarios. Christoffer Kok, head of the stress test modelling division of the ECB’s directorate general for macroprudential policy and financial stability, joins Emma McGarthy, head of OMFIF’s Sustainable Policy Institute, to discuss the results of the stress test, approaches and methodologies taken and lessons learnt.
