Abstract
Abstract Increasing environmental, social and governance (ESG) challenges and the related changing risk landscape demand nowadays from the insurance industry holistic and far-sighted risk management in which ESG issues are considered. Regulators globally are also increasingly perceiving the importance of ESG issues and are taking proactive measures to address them. The European Union is a global leader regarding the attempts to integrate sustainability in its regulatory framework. The Solvency II regime review regarding sustainability risks is a crucial point towards ensuring the resilience of the insurance industry to the long-term impacts of climate change and other sustainability challenges. This chapter explores the theoretical foundations of ESG risk mitigation in underwriting and investing and examines how leading European insurers deal with ESG risks and opportunities. Considerable differences that exist among selected insurers both in terms of their ESG underwriting and investment strategies and policies indicate that the companies concerned find themselves in different sustainability maturity stages.
