Insurers and other stakeholders are invited to join a free webinar on 2 June exploring how insurance contracts can aid in the fight against climate change.
Over the last two months, insurers and legal experts have been busy redesigning a toolkit of open-source clauses that can be included in insurance contracts.
The clauses typically aim to create a mutually beneficial action – such as the disclosure of climate risks, or a reduction in greenhouse gas emissions – between insurer and policyholder.
The 2 June event will be an opportunity for lawyers and other interested stakeholders to:
- Familiarise themselves with the Chancery Lane Project's key climate clauses in the sector;
- Discuss relevant gatekeepers, obstacles and arguments for using the clauses; and
- Consider drafting amendments required to get the clauses into your documentation.
The Chancery Lane Project's insurance related clauses to be reviewed at the 2 June event will be:
- Archie's clause: Premium adjustment for D&O climate-related financial disclosures
- Connor's clause: Exclusions from insurance coverage for climate harms
- Iris' clause: Climate Risk Sharing Provisions
- Lola & Harry's DDQ: Climate and Net Zero Due Diligence Questionnaire
- Zack's clause: SPA/Investment Agreement: Disclosure of Climate Change Plans
- Nico's clause: Cooler-Plate Clauses (Climate Aligned Boilerplate)
The webinar will take place between 09.00-10.30 BST (10.00-11.30 CET).
