Global Risks Report 2023: Implications and strategies for your organisation

Overview

The 18th Global Risks Report heralds an era of increasingly interconnected and simultaneous threats facing businesses and governments. It flags cost-of-living, climate change, supply-driven inflation and infrastructure-level cyber-attacks as high on the list of risks that have ongoing implications for the business community.  

The international agenda-setting report is produced each year by Marsh McLennan and the World Economic Forum and surveys 1,200+ executives, experts and leaders globally.

Marsh is thrilled to invite you to an exclusive presentation with one of the report’s contributors Richard Smith-Bingham, on a world-wide speaking tour from London. Hear how you can prioritise your risk strategies against the top macroeconomic risks including the ongoing effects of the pandemic and Russia-Ukraine war, hyper connected digitisation, biodiversity loss and climate change, resource shortages and economic pressures that impact workers.

Prompt registration is recommended as places are strictly limited.

Thanks to our event hosts Marsh.
