economies as a potentially significant risk to the stability of the
financial system. Major agencies such as the Federal Reserve, the ECB,
the Bank of England, and the Financial Stability Board are taking steps
to stay informed of the risks and are struggling with how best to
manage the risks and prepare individual institutions and the system to
withstand the effects of such risks. Review and discuss the approach
taken by one of these central banks to monitor and prepare for climate
change risks. What are the strengths and weakness of the chosen
approach? How does the approach compare with that of other central
banks or best practices?”
