Geopolitical Risk Management and its Importance for Organizations
Geopolitical risk management is crucial for organizations to navigate the increasing global geopolitical volatility. It involves identifying and understanding how geopolitical issues can impact an organization's financial performance, strategy, operational resilience, and reputation. Geopolitical risks are no longer limited to emerging markets and can affect both developed and emerging economies. It is important to recognize that geopolitical risks cannot always be quantitatively measured due to the lack of perfect historical data and analogies. However, organizations can start with qualitative assessments and then overlay expert judgment to understand potential impacts. Risk managers should prioritize integrating geopolitical expertise into risk function activity, including financial risk management, strategy development, operational risk assessment, and reputation risk management. By doing so, organizations can identify and assess potential opportunities and challenges related to geopolitical risks, enhancing their decision-making processes and risk mitigation strategies.
