Nordic organisations face an unprecedented convergence of challenges: rapid technological disruption, geopolitical volatility, escalating operational costs, and increasingly intricate supply chains. This dynamic environment demands that leadership teams take a fundamental look at the risk management domain, which often needs to evolve from a defensive discipline focused on threat mitigation to a strategic enabler that transforms uncertainty into competitive advantage, empowering organisations to accelerate innovation and capitalise on emerging opportunities.
Our survey on risk management and resilience practices covers 52 organisations in the Nordics (excluding the financial services and public sectors) and examines both current risk practices and priorities as well as risk practitioners’ views on building insights, competence and robustness for the future.
We hope the findings and perspectives presented in our report provide useful guidance for risk practitioners, business leaders, and boards seeking to enhance their organisation’s resilience and strategic agility in a fast-changing environment.
