Abstract

The aim of this paper is to discuss improvements for the Master in Sustainability Management of Fundação Getulio Vargas (FGV), in order to incorporate the topic of disaster risk management (DRM). Considering the risks and opportunities that climate change - and more specifically extreme weather events that can lead to disasters - represent to business, it is essential that business schools help prepare managers to deal with this critical sustainability issue. Therefore, it is extremely important to include this topic in management education. Aiming to support companies to assess and address business risks and opportunities derived from climate change, the Business for Climate Platform (EPC) of the Center for Sustainability Studies (GVces) of FGV has developed a framework and a tool for business adaptation strategies for climate change and implemented them with seven large companies in Brazil. Thus, based on EPC's experience, the paper brings a proposal for the inclusion of DRM in the MSM's syllabi, through the lens of climate change adaptation. El objetivo de este trabajo es discutir mejoras para la Maestría de Gestión de la Sostenibilidad (MGS) de la Fundação Getulio Vargas (FGV), con el fin de incorporar el tema gestión del riesgo de desastres (GRD).

Así, con base en la experiencia del EPC, este artículo aporta una propuesta para la inserción de GRD en los planes de estudios del MGS, a través de la lente de la adaptación al cambio climático.

Abstract

The possibility of an occurrence of adverse selection in the agricultural insurance market in Brazil is evaluated. Adverse selection occurs when insurances are primarily contracted by agents, at high risks. The hypothesis is that the phenomenon may be triggered by increase in value compensated in accidents derived from extreme climate changes that would cause increase in the premiums demanded by the insurance companies. The most expensive premiums cause portfolios to be primarily composed of high-risk insurance, increasing the occurrence of compensation for losses. Linear regression analyses were performed between losses, which occurred in one year, and contracts for the following year, between 2003 and 2013 for six Brazilian states: Mato Grosso do Sul (MS); Minas Gerais (MG); Paraná (PR); Santa Catarina (SC); Rio Grande do Sul (RS); and São Paulo (SP). The significance of data linear regressions was estimated by randomized statistical tests. The occurrence of adverse selection between 2003 and 2013 could be inferred in the case of the states of MS, RS and SP. Results contribute towards the characterization and identification of the adverse selection phenomenon that causes high loss rates in the Brazilian agricultural insurance market.
