A balance for a regulating member of a horological movement, the balance including, at least in part, a body that can be deformed as a function of temperature, the deformable body being arranged, at least in part, on the periphery of the balance, the balance being configured so as to be able to move about a centre of rotation, the balance including a device for adjusting the sensitivity of the deformable body to temperature change, the adjustment device being provided with a first inertial element arranged on the deformable body in order to be able to modify the moment of inertia thereof, the first inertial element being capable of moving relative to the deformable body into a plurality of positions, wherein the positions form a continuous set. A horological movement and a regulating member can include such a balance.
