Overview:

Multiple and severe ongoing uncertainties threatening business and economic stability make it critical that we turn our focus towards identifying risks that will impact us and creating and applying strategies that are more resilient in the face of these. The residual effects of the financial crisis of 2007/8, Brexit, and Covid-19 still linger economically. Now we have the existential threats of the Ukraine War, Middle Eastern conflict, U.S. foreign and trade policy, Russian expansionism and domestic political upheaval are the most obvious major events creating economic and business disruption and will resonate for years to come. Yet there are other threats and uncertainties that must be considered – environment and climate change, increasing intensity of competition, shifts in government policy, changing consumer trends and rapid technological change all represent real risks to stability but also offer opportunities to those businesses who are well prepared with robust and nimble strategies.
