Istotność ryzyka klimatycznego dla stabilności finansowej: na co wskazują trendy w komunikacji banków centralnych?
A Significance of Climate Risks for the financial Stability: What do Trends in Central Banks Communication Tell Us?

Summary/Abstract: The article examines to what extent central banks transmit the significance of climate risks for the financial stability to markets. Using simple text-mining techniques the article explores Financial Stability Reports (FSR) of central banks from the sample to assess the relative importance of climate-related topics, in particular to assess an intensity and regularity of climate topics in FSRs as sub-factors of their importance. The author assumed that the great importance of climate topics in central banks communication, facilitated by their regularity, gives a strong signal to markets about the significance of climate risks for financial stability. However, the findings indicate the generally low importance of climate-related topics in central banks’ communication (by means of FSR), which remains in contrast with the great urgency of climate considerations for financial stability nowadays.
