Highlights from the World Economic Forum’s Global Risks Report

Overview

The Global Risks Report provides insights into the key global risks facing business and government. It offers the collective view of risk experts across the globe as to the most significant threats to global prosperity over the next decade. Richard will focus on those that will impact NZ business during the coming year.

Richard Smith-Bingham

Based in London, Richard leads the emerging risks agenda for Marsh & McLennan Advantage, Insights, which has him exploring trends and disruptions in the macro-level risk landscape and advising companies and governments on how to better anticipate and respond to new complex threats.

It is a role that enables him to align a thirst for spotting weak signals of new trends and possible game-changing dislocations with his consulting background in Oliver Wyman helping multinationals negotiate the interface between strategy and risk to manage earnings volatility. 

He sits on the Advisory Board of the World Economic Forum Global Risks Report and is a Steering Group member of the OECD’s High-Level Risk Forum, which focuses on country-level risk governance arrangements.

Prior to joining MMC, Richard led the policy and research agenda for NESTA, the UK’s innovation agency. He has a BA from Oxford and a PhD from University College London.
