With it just hanging/sitting there, it likely won't do much. If it's drafty at all, you might see some improvement because the drafts are redirected, but I wouldn't expect much more than that.
I wouldn't expect it to cause any problems either though.
If a quick fix is what you're after, a sheet of styrofoam insulation on the inside of the wall would likely do a much better job.
