‘think’ edition 11: Behavioural interventions for building climate resilience

The eleventh edition in this series has been authored by IFoA Fellow Rajeshwarie VS. It’s a follow-up to her previous ‘think’ piece ‘The Brain Game: How can actuaries leverage behavioural economics?’.

Rajeshwarie works in reinsurance underwriting for SwissRe Global Business Solutions India as Head Portfolio Costing Bangalore. She has previously been Head of Reserving at Chubb Business Services India and at Chola MS General Insurance Ltd. 

In this piece, Rajeshwarie argues that ‘bottom-up’ actions by individuals are crucial to combatting climate change. She highlights how behavioural economics can drive sustainable behaviours through targeted interventions.
