Description (excerpt):
In Looking over the Horizon: The Case for Prioritizing Climate-Related Risk Supervision of Banks, Yevgeny Shrago and David Arkush argue that supervisory oversight of a bank’s safety and soundness is a tool flexible enough to help guard against emerging financial risks posed by climate change—one that can be utilized quickly. Because supervisory guidance is not the product of a formal rulemaking process, it can be deployed with limited administrative delays and avoid pitfalls that impede many legislative and regulatory efforts.
