Strategic briefings for international technology company
The client:
A UK-founded company developing household appliances.
The issue:
Our client was looking to embed more strategic thinking into decision-making on managing risk. It was keen for external expertise on geopolitical risk to inform senior decision-making.
Our solution:
As part of a continuing arrangement, Control Risks’ provides expert contributors to join regular global senior management meetings taking place within the client organisation. Presentation content is agreed prior to each meeting, taking into account recent and forthcoming geopolitical or political developments in regions and countries of interest, questions raised by client personnel and suggestions from Control Risks’ team members based around the world who are aware of the client’s exposure, risk appetite and interests.
Up to three senior analysts attend each meeting to present analysis on political, strategic and security issues and to forecast how future developments may impact on the client’s exposure to political risk and operational disruption. The sessions are designed to be fully interactive, with participants from the client organisation fully encouraged to ask questions and share their own views on the issues discussed. All events are recorded.
The result:
Our client has reported that its teams feel better informed about geopolitical trends and events with potential to affect their operations and risk exposure, and able to make better and more timely decisions which improve the resilience of the company.
