Abstract: Regarding the need for a better and concrete integration of global warming and climate-related risks in their day-to-day activities of financing economic agents, financial regulators have significantly increased the pressure on banks in recent years. In that purpose, it is no wonder that bank boards are at the forefront of expressing their ability to meet these new requirements, limit green washing while preserving their margins. Historically oriented towards corporate social responsibility, bank boards will be challenged by the need to demonstrate their real ability to contribute to the definition of risk policy. This chapter focuses on the ability of boards to fulfil their oversight responsibilities and to consider the specific context of climate-related risks and their impact on traditional financial risks.
