Abstract: On May 20, 2021, President Biden issued the Executive Order on Climate-Related Financial Risk, Exec. Order No. 14030 (E.O. 14030), which called on FIO to: (1) “assess climate-related issues or gaps in the supervision and regulation of insurers” and (2) “further assess, in consultation with States, the potential for major disruptions of private insurance coverage in regions of the country particularly vulnerable to climate change impacts.” [1] This information collection is necessary for FIO to advance its statutory mandates (including to monitor the extent to which traditionally underserved communities and consumers, minorities, and low- and moderate-income persons have access to affordable insurance products, and to monitor all aspects of the insurance industry) and to fulfill the second undertaking for FIO under E.O. 14030.[2] Under FIO's data collection, FIO will obtain consistent, granular, and comparable homeowners insurance data that is not otherwise publicly available on a nationwide level. This nationwide view is critical to understanding how climate-related financial risks impact families and individuals across state markets and the United States, and how these effects could impact the broader financial system.
