摘要: 穆迪投资者服务公司表示:安联,安盛,瑞士再保险,慕尼黑再保险和苏黎世在减少其对化石燃料,尤其是燃煤电厂的承销和投资方面比大多数全球同行都走得更远。

2020年2月24日, 穆迪投资服务公司发布研究公告称:保险公司从煤炭撤出是积极的。主要结论有以下两点:
  • 欧洲最大的保险和再保险公司正在限制某些化石能源业务。

  • 从燃煤电厂退出正成为优先选项,可以减少未来的责任风险和搁浅资产风险。

  • Europe's biggest (re)insurers are limiting their exposure to certain fossil fuels.

  • Retreat from thermal coal is taking priority and limiting future liability and stranded asset risk.

 穆迪投资者服务公司表示:安联,安盛,瑞士再保险,慕尼黑再保险和苏黎世在减少其对化石燃料,尤其是燃煤电厂的承销和投资方面比大多数全球同行都走得更远。Allianz, AXA, Swiss Re, MunichRe and Zurich are going further than most of their global peers in reducing their underwriting and investment exposure to fossil fuels, and thermal coal in particular, says Moody's Investors Service.  “我们认为保险公司从燃煤电厂中撤出是积极的。”穆迪副总裁布兰丹•霍尔姆斯(Brandan Holmes)表示: “这减少了他们面临的潜在气候变化责任风险,并减少了投资资产搁浅的风险。"We view the insurers' retreat from thermal coal as positive," said Brandan Holmes, a Moody's Vice President. "It reduces their exposure to potential climate change liability risk, and reduces the risk of their investment assets becoming stranded." 
所有五家保险/再保险公司都将优先考虑从燃煤发电相关行业撤资,因为其生产单位能源的碳强度最高。也正是由于这个原因,煤炭行业极易遭受向低碳经济过渡的不利影响,从而导致信贷风险上升。All five (re)insurance companies are prioritising the pullback from thermal coal related industries because the sector has the highest carbon intensity per unit of energy produced. It is also for this reason that the coal sector is highly exposed to the adverse effects of transition to a low-carbon economy, leading to rising credit risk.
