Ana specialises on the role of financial regulation and risk-sharing systems to deliver the Paris Agreement and Sustainable Development Goals. At CISL, she works with policymakers, regulators and industry on the Call-to-Action “Risk Sharing in the Climate Emergency: Financial Regulation for a Resilient, Net Zero, Just Transition”, launched in CoP26 on Finance Day (CISL, 2021).
This Call-to-Action proposes twenty concrete steps to urgently govern, manage, and reduce climate risks from local to global scales. Ana is now leading a case study of these actions with the insurance regulator of Costa Rica.
In 2017-2019 she conducted pioneering CISL fieldwork in the Philippines on the medium-term outcomes of households devastated by Typhoon Haiyan. This was the first publication to assess insurance impacts on delivery of SDG targets in the years after a major disaster (CISL, 2019).
