SINGAPORE – Media OutReach – 17 January 2023 – It is both stability and change in the Allianz Risk Barometer 2023. Cyber Incidents and Business Interruption rank as the biggest company concerns for the second year in succession (both with 34% of all responses). However, it is Macroeconomic Developments such as inflation, financial market volatility and a looming recession (up from #10 to #3 year-on-year), as well as the impact of the Energy Crisis (a new entry at #4) which are the top risers in this year’s list of global business risks, as the economic and political consequences of the world in the aftermath of Covid-19 and the Ukraine war take hold.
