Katrīna Muižniece

Katrīna Muižniece is the Climate Risk and Transition Area Manager at Luminor Group, where she leads efforts to strengthen organisational readiness for climate risks and the transition to a low-carbon economy. Her work spans regulatory analysis, ESG reporting, climate-risk modelling, and the development of strategies that support emission reduction and long-term resilience across financial portfolios.

With a strong academic foundation in environmental engineering, Katrīna is also involved in research on decarbonisation pathways and transition financing in the Baltic region. She works at the intersection of policy, science, and finance — helping financial institutions better understand how climate-related risks shape economic stability and investment decisions.

A key focus of her work is the agricultural sector, where evolving EU sustainability requirements bring both new pressures and new opportunities. Katrīna is committed to supporting farmers and agri-businesses as they adapt to these changes, ensuring they can access green and transition financing to strengthen soil health, productivity, and climate resilience.

Bringing a systemic and pragmatic perspective, Katrīna contributes essential insights into how the financial sector can drive a just and effective transition for food and land-use systems.
