Macroeconomic perils, digitization risks, threats to climate and sustainability, and people challenges. This year’s Global Risks Report, prepared by the World Economic Forum with the support of Marsh McLennan and other partners, like Zurich, explores these challenges and many others that organizations and their risk managers should keep their eyes on in the short and long term.
This bonus episode of Risk in Context features a conversation between Reid Sawyer, head of Marsh’s Emerging Risks Group and US cyber risk consulting leader, and Robin A. Kemper, a senior risk engineer with Zurich Resilience Solutions, during Zurich’s Future of Risk podcast, moderated by David Hilgen. They discuss the findings from the Global Risks Report and resilience strategies that should help organizations in the face of evolving and emerging risks.
