AON
Overview: Aon Risk Maps is now in its 22nd year of providing crucial insight into the global geopolitical and security landscape. We produce the maps to help businesses visualise and understand the risks they face on an international scale.
Aon works closely with our partners Continuum Economics and The Risk Advisory Group to pinpoint and explore the most impactful and meaningful issues for our clients in the crisis management space.
For political risk we have seen a growing interest in unexpected areas. Populism and the US-China trade war have rattled the global economy and clients understandably want to limit the impact of this volatility on their operations.
Meanwhile, terrorism has witnessed a shift in ideologies, with the new risk posed by returning Islamic State fighters matched in terms of cause and effect by the emerging threat of far-right extremism in North America and Europe. Fortunately, the market is responding to the needs of buyers with solutions that are tailored to this evolving picture.
Aon is supporting its global clients to respond to political risks and security challenges by using the analysis derived from the maps to inform the creation of a more robust risk management programme.
We hope this year’s maps provide you with the insights that you need to better protect your business, and should you need to discuss any aspects of your insurance coverage – or how these risks affect your exposure.
