In 2019, AXA Climate was founded to help both private and public organisations prepare to climate and environmental challenges.

At the time, our focus was on protecting them from climate risks through parametric insurance. Today, we are a team of over 170 people, combining not only insurance but also consulting, and software solutions to support climate adaptation.

Over the past 7 years, we have learned that addressing climate adaptation only through risk management is a dead end.

Adapting means embracing a systemic view of risks.

Adapting is about recognising the unique realities of local contexts.

Adapting it’s about fostering cooperation among stakeholders.

Adapting is essential to ensure the long-term viability of our communities and businesses.

Adapting also means not forgetting the importance of making bold strides to reduce our emissions significantly—and doing so with urgency.

This vision continues to drive us, and today we can say that:

More than 500,000 public, industrial and agricultural sites and assets have been analysed to assess their climate and environmental risks for 2030, 2050 and beyond.

In under 5 minutes, Altitude, our software solution, gives clients access to scientific data to independently build climate, biodiversity and carbon strategies.

Over 1,000 payouts were made within a matter of days to farmers, businesses and vulnerable communities impacted by climate hazards through parametric insurance.

P.S. We regularly publish scientific articles and engage on social media to further the collective conversation around climate adaptation.
