Focus on the future: Coface conference in Vienna for risk analysis
Apothekertrakt des Schloss Schönbrunn, 1130 Wien, Österreich - On Tuesday, June 3, 2025, the 22nd edition of the Country Risk Conference (CRC) of the Coface will take place in Vienna. This significant event is carried out in the pharmacy tract of Schönbrunn Castle and is devoted to the discussion about the future of Europe and the challenges that climate change, migration and European regulations have. The host of the conference is Dagmar Koch, the Coface Austria Country Manager, a company that has been working in credit and risk management for almost 80 years.
The conference is opened by a keynote presentation by Julius van de Laar, which "Trump after 135 days-promises made. Celebrities. treated. Furthermore, Christoph von Marschall appears, who deals with "the new world order" and its effects on Europe, Germany and Austria. Another important point of the event will be a risk overview for various industries and countries, provided by Christiane von Berg, a Coface economist for the Benelux and Dach region.
climate change and migration in focus
In view of the current global challenges, a central topic of the conference will be migration as a result of climate change. According to the UNHCR, over 116 million people worldwide were fleeing in 2023, with a significant part of the displacement due to climate -related events. The climate consequences such as increasing sea levels and lack of water are increasingly leading to distribution fights and migration. In fifty years, large parts of the world could possibly become uninhabitable if global warming progresses unchecked.The possibility of "survival migration" is discussed as a key term to characterize climate change and its effects on migration. This type of migration will continue to remain complex, since the UN Refugee Convention of 1951 has not yet recognized any causes of flight. The case of the person Ioane TeitioTa, who applied for asylum in New Zealand in 2010 and his application was rejected because his life was not directly threatened, illustrates the challenges with which climate -related migrants are confronted.

- Discussants : Among the discussants, Dagmar Koch from Coface, Bettina Ludwig von der Kontron AG, Patrick Orlet von Woom, Caroline Klaper von Wienerberger Austria and Oliver Rammerstorfer by Plasser & Theurer.
The challenges of climate change are not just theoretical nature. For example, reports show that 98% of the disaster -related displacement in 2022 were due to extreme weather events. With forecasts of up to 216 million climate -related domestic disorders by 2050, developing countries, small island states and arctic regions are particularly affected.
economic aspects and support
Coface, the company that organizes the conference, serves around 100,000 customers in around 200 markets and generated sales of around 1.845 billion euros in 2024. Despite its extensive services in the area of project credit, economic information and debt collection, the conference shows the need that international financial resources and technical support for adapting to climate change are also urgently required. The migration context is increasingly taken into account by political actors and scientists. A new fund for losses and damage that could take human mobility into account due to climate change is the focus of the discussions.
The conference will thus offer a platform to address the pressing topics of climate change and migration and to develop possible solutions that react to the current challenges.
