I smiled reading this on the tram heading to #cop28. Anyone working for @mercer or the broader @MarshMcLennan family should be proud of the all-in team effort we’re making here. 40+ speaking roles, including two by our CEO just today.

System-level awareness and action will define leadership in the future. #MMChats #Risks23
A8.1 Businesses have the opportunity to influence structural changes to economic&geopolitical landscape and not distract focus & attention to short term crises at the expense of medium to longer-term impact on natural and human ecosystems. #MMChats, #MegaChat, #WEF23, #Risks23

Julian -- this will require new skills, new mindsets and new energy. #MMChats #Risks23
A8: Business, and governments, must look to their insurance brokers as their “risk advisors” and seek end to end solutions combining all of the capabilities the industry has to offer. #MMChats #Risks23

A8. First, understand which risks affect you most. Second, understand how those risks are affected by other risks. And third, with this new wider aperture take a system-level view of how you can mitigate exposures – individually and in partnership with others. #MMChats #Risks23

A6.2. Responding to @GuyCarpenter -- not sure this chart from #GRR23 shows growing confidence in long-term climate solutions #MMChats #Risks23

A7. Massively. Extreme heat alone is already an epidemic and its impact will only grow (h/t @ArshtRock report below).And as the relationship between climate and nature becomes transparent I suspect we’ll see regional viruses begin to migrate to new geographies #MMChats #Risks23

A5. As every expert will tell you start with basic awareness. But clearly that isn’t enough. We also need enhanced intelligence sharing, public-private risk sharing mechanisms, heightened protections for critical infrastructure and a host of other actions. #MMChats #Risks23

Local community engagement is critical to avoid maladaptation. But the most vulnerable need voices and advocates. #MMChats

Large employers can also begin to assess how to protect their supply chains. Lots of fragility, particularly in commodity markets.
A4: Employers have a role to play here too. If they offer benefits that cover both physical and mental health, and that are appropriate to the diverse populations they employ, they can offer a level of extra protection during polycrises times. #Risks23 #WEF23 #MMChats

A4. By aggressively pursuing partnerships that deploy our respective capabilities in new ways. Anticipatory finance. Community-based catastrophe insurance. Global risk modeling alliance. All need to be scaled. We're facing one of those tests of challenge & controversy. #MMChats

If climate mitigation is about rapid technology deployment, climate adaptation is about people. We need to balance the investments here.

You're so right to mention the "S" here. Social injustice is exacerbated by climate exposures and disasters. Addressing this must be part of the broader effort.
