Τεκμήριο Climate risk, a call for action! The practical implications on the Greek banking industry(2021) Gkikopouli, Leonidas; Γκικόπουλη, Λεωνίδας; Athens University of Economics and Business, Department of International and European Economic Studies; Louri-Dendrinou, Eleni; Pagratis, Spyros; Sakellaris, PlutarchosWe are officially in the third decade of the 21st century, and the world is confronting a critical danger that threatens lives, livelihoods, economies and the global financial stability. Climate change is the tragedy in the horizon with widespread environmental, social and economic repercussions and they are already, or they are expected to be felt in every economic sector or geographical region. Yet, reversing the impending climate disaster, decisive action is necessary and substantial effort must be shown by all agents of the economy in order to make a transition towards a sustainable world. In that context, climate risk portfolio management and climate risk assessment are gaining a momentum, since more stakeholders are actively working on unfolding the issue, a modern Ariadne’s thread. However, one economic industry appears to play a vital role on the development of an adequate climate risk assessment framework, the banking sector. In this thesis, we are going to unfold that thread on how climate change creates negative implications that endanger both the economic activity and financial stability, why it is relevant to financial and banking institutions and what are the current risk management practices, tools and recommendations on how to tackle climate change risk. The particularity of this dissertation is that we are going to answer all those crucial questions apropos of the Greek banking sector and especially through the operations of the four systemic Greek banks.
