FERMA's Policy #Manifesto for 2024-2029 aligns closely with the @European Commission's work programme for 2025, in promoting #competitiveness, #sustainability and #crisispreparedness. Key area of focus include: 🔹 #Simplification: The proposed #OmnibusSimplificationPackage on sustainability rules is a step toward streamlining compliance. FERMA will actively contribute to the consultations, supporting effective and practical frameworks that enhance sustainability risk management and climate resilience. 🌍 #ClimateResilience & #Insurance Gaps: The EU’s #CleanIndustrialDeal underscores the urgency of climate risk assessment and transition planning. FERMA supports closing climate insurance gaps and the development of an EU-wide reinsurance scheme. 💻 #Cybersecurity: the Commission recognizes cybersecurity as a growing risk area. FERMA is pushing for simplified cyber reporting and engaging policymakers on an EU-level backstop for catastrophic cyber risks. ⚡ #Resilience: The Preparedness Union Strategy will strengthen crisis preparedness. FERMA will contribute expertise to support proactive risk mitigation and advocate for risk-based policymaking.

Curios about the best European Certification for Risk Managers? Don't miss this article published by SCHADE magazine where Paul Brons & Lea Lelijveld van Cingelshouck, rimap® alumni and NARIM members, explain why rimap® should be aa must-have for everyone pursuing a career in Risk Management in the Netherlands. This one is for our Dutch-speaking audience!😉 But you can find all the details about rimap® on the FERMA website: https://lnkd.in/gNP8TVM4 Already rimap® certified? Take the next step with the Advanced level: https://lnkd.in/e-3dPgUA #Rimap #RiskManagement #LifelongLearning #NARIM #FERMA
Risicobeheersing en verzekeringsmanagement worden steeds complexer. Permanente educatie is dan ook voor risk & insurance managers onmisbaar. Wist je dat werkgevers in Nederland vaak nog van risk- en insurance managers verlangen dat zij over een Wft-certificering beschikken ook al sluit die certificering totaal niet aan bij ons werk? En dat terwijl het Rimap-certificaat van de FERMA | Federation of European Risk Management Associations een veel passender en hoger gekwalificeerd alternatief biedt. Waarom dit Rimap-certificaat zo cruciaal is voor de beroepsgroep? Paul Brons en Lea Lelijveld van Cingelshouck, beiden Rimap advanced gecertificeerd en actief (bestuurs)lid binnen NARIM, leggen het je haarfijn uit! https://lnkd.in/egRdXRuh #Rimap #kwaliteit #riskmanager #insurancemanager

On 26 February, the European Commission unveiled its long-awaited #OmnibusSimplificationPackage, introducing key amendments to the #CSRD, #CS3D, and #Taxonomy Regulation. At FERMA, we welcome this package as a positive signal for companies. Sustainability is not just about compliance: it’s about #attractiveness, #transparency, and long-term #resilience. Many businesses, large and small, will continue strengthening their #sustainability #riskmanagement for these reasons. Risk Managers play an essential role in identifying and mitigating #sustainability #risks and their #impacts, while also pinpointing and enabling related #opportunities. We support the Commission’s efforts to simplify regulations while maintaining sustainability ambitions. We welcome: ✅ The confirmation of #doublemateriality assessment as a cornerstone of the CSRD. ✅Reduced regulatory burden for all companies, while keeping voluntary reporting options available for SMEs and small mid-caps. ✅A pragmatic approach to CS3D risk assessment, limiting in-depth due diligence to direct suppliers rather than the entire value chain. ✅Extended compliance timelines—pushing back CS3D and CSRD reporting (for the 2nd and 3rd waves) to 2028, giving businesses more time to adapt and invest, as well as new technologies to be widespread. FERMA will conduct a deep dive into the Omnibus package and release a more detailed position soon. Stay tuned! #Sustainability #RiskManagement #ESG #Omnibus #CSRD #CS3D #FERMA #RegulatorySimplification
