Sir, I am shocked, and utterly concerned about my very dear Britain’s future. How on earth have you allowed yourself to be trapped by such besserwisser-busybodies hands, as is reflected in Pilita Clark’s by the “Bank of England seeks answers from insurers over climate change” October 28.
Truly mindboggling. If BoE is so concerned about climate change, then why does it not suggest that capital requirements for banks should be based on our planet-earth’s-sustainability ratings, instead of silly, purposeless, credit-risk ratings, those which are already being cleared for by banks with risk premiums and size of exposures?
