The Risk Rift: Why Playing Safe Could be Dangerous
Now in its tenth year, BDO’s Global Risk Landscape Report is based on a survey of more than 500 C-suite leaders across Europe, the Middle East, Africa, Asia-Pacific and the Americas. The survey examines their approach to risk management and how they are responding to emerging global events that threaten their businesses. These annual reports have become an important source of information on how business leaders and risk specialists perceive and manage the risks their businesses face.
One of the themes emerging from our 2025 survey is how the retreat from risk in the last 12 months could lead to lower growth in the future. Businesses are increasingly taking a compliance-led approach to risk, and increased regulation may be driving a box-ticking mentality at the expense of real risk management. It is crucial to adopt a proactive risk approach and not be satisfied with box-ticking. By doing so, businesses can enhance their risk posture and seize the business opportunities ahead of them.
