FRANKFURT: A sudden jump in carbon prices coupled with floods and droughts this year would lead to losses of at least €70bil (US$71.1bil or RM314.7bil) for the eurozone’s largest banks, the European Central Bank (ECB) says.

Banks and other companies are under increasing pressure from their shareholders and environmental group to act quickly to reduce the carbon footprint of their activities.
The central bank’s test also found that most eurozone banks did not have a framework for modelling climate risk and did not typically take it into account when granting loans.
“Eurozone banks must urgently step up efforts to measure and manage climate risk, closing the current data gaps and adopting good practices that are already present in the sector,” the ECB’s chief supervisor Andrea Enria said. — Reuters
