The Association of British Insurers has been confirmed as an official accelerator of the UN-backed Race to Zero campaign. In this role, the ABI will encourage members to join the campaign and work to raise awareness of the initiative.

Ben Wilson, director of corporate affairs and climate change at the ABI, said:
“The new report from the intergovernmental panel on climate change provided humanity with a stark warning that immediate and rapid action is needed to tackle the climate breakdown. The race is on, and our industry has a key role in ensuring we all have a liveable and sustainable future.

“The insurance and long-term savings sector is committed to playing its part and we’re delighted to have been confirmed as an accelerator of the UN’s Race to Zero campaign. We look forward to working further with the UN and our members as we rise to the challenge of meeting net zero targets.”
