Articles - Surprising link of climate change and global security risks


Anna Mejlerö, Senior Emerging Risk Manager at Swiss Re Institute, talks about how climate change threatens global stability, affecting everything from water scarcity to food supplies. Water shortages can cause conflicts, as seen with Spain's recent protests over tourist-driven water depletion.

Mejlerö also discusses the Arctic as a climate-change hotspot affecting global security concerns. Discover how these risks affect insurance policies in our video.
