<abstract displayLabel="Summary">The report From Risk to Resilience: Closing the Climate Insurance Protection Gap explores how climate change is widening the gap between economic losses from natural disasters and the portion covered by insurance, posing a systemic threat to global financial stability. It emphasizes that insurance, a key tool for economic resilience, is increasingly strained by rising risks, unaffordable premiums, and regional exclusions. The document argues that market forces alone cannot close this gap due to misaligned incentives among insurers, consumers, and governments. It proposes a dual strategy: enhancing physical resilience through climate adaptation investments and boosting financial resilience by expanding accessible and sustainable insurance coverage. Achieving this requires coordinated public policies, public-private partnerships, regulatory incentives, and long-term alignment of stakeholder interests</abstract>
