A Climate Transition Risk Assessment for the Banking Sector of the Philippines

This report describes a transition risk assessment for the Philippines’ banking sector conducted by a World Bank technical team. It is intended to provide a source of reference for financial regulators and financial institutions in the Philippines that are interested in conducting climate risk assessments, following relevant high-level supervisory guidance. Our analysis suggests that while the Philippines banking sector might experience limited financial stability effects due to climate transition risk, banks with significant exposure to high-emission sectors could face heightened vulnerabilities.
