Global Risk Landscape 2024

Is antifragility the future of stable business?

Does your organisation have an ‘antifragile’ mindset?

Antifragile organisations are not only resilient, they actually improve and prosper when stressed and exposed to risk. They look for opportunity in disruption and seek to turn risk into competitive advantage. When economic, geopolitical and political landscapes seem almost continually volatile, this proactive mindset may be the key to sustainable long-term success.

The 2024 Global Risk Landscape shows that almost half of global business leaders believe their organisations have an antifragile approach to risk. But only 7% said their organisations were “risk welcoming” and only 19% said they were very proactive when dealing with risk. Is there a gap between the antifragile aspiration and reality?

AI and risk mitigation

The Global Risk Landscape Report also examines the attitudes of risk leaders to a range of evolving risks such as Artificial Intelligence (AI), geopolitical tensions and supply chains. This year, the report highlights how quickly risk priorities are shifting in response to the shifting business landscape;

Only 59% of business leaders now see AI as an opportunity, compared to 83% in last years’ report

Geopolitical tensions were a common risk, cited by 26% of respondents

Environmental risk has declined in priority, despite being the risk business leaders said they were least prepared for in 2023

So why has AI optimism declined? Which AI tools do business leaders have their eyes on? And have geopolitical tensions superceded the prominence so environmental risks?

Discover analysis of AI risk, how to manage the risks posed by AI and how becoming an antifragile business can combat a world of risks.
