The Talanx Group is withdrawing from the provision of insurance protection for coal-based risks over the long term. The Group is thus committing to the process of transformation towards a lower-carbon economy and living up to the goals of the Paris Agreement on climate change, which it has already supported for a number of years. The governments of 195 countries have now agreed on a global action plan for a climate-friendly economy. 17 of the 28 member states of the European Union have already decided to phase out fossil fuels or are discussing such a move. As an insurance partner of industry, the Talanx Group will engage in a dialogue with customers to find constructive solutions for strengthening climate protection.
