About the Exchange: “Visionary Risk Management: an instrument for sustainable value creation?”

The current era is increasingly defined by the interplay of complex disruptions, with their disparate origins and long-term consequences. Institutions are not fully prepared for the new reality, often reacting separately to each disruption. This position is untenable, and organizations are finding that their current risk management practices must evolve to suit this new environment.
Challenges are multiple. Companies are facing on a daily basis the consequences of macroeconomic uncertainties, climate change, geopolitical unrest and digital (r)evolution. The pandemic taught us that resilience is more than crisis management. The ability to recover quickly is key, but recovery alone is not an adequate goal. Truly resilient organizations bounce back better and even thrive.

Leaders are now discussing resilience as the essential condition, but this requires an integrated vision on risk, strategy and leadership throughout all layers of the organisation, starting at its top level.

During this unique Exchange, you will get interesting insights and have the opportunity to raise questions you haven’t asked before regarding the next step towards future-proof risk management, your instrument for sustainable value creation.
