"Risks are now increasingly interconnected, which, if amplified, can trigger a ripple effect across industries, regions, and diverse stakeholder groups. Therefore, mitigating them will involve measures to quantify relevant risks, estimate the probability of occurrence and the adoption of a cohesive, interdisciplinary, and multipronged approach," said Murali Krishnan, Visionary Innovation Group Senior Industry Analyst at Frost & Sullivan.
Krishnan added: "With an estimated 200 billion connected devices by 2030, the risk of sophisticated cyberattacks will escalate. Therefore, companies should invest in future-casting tools that help identify the impact of such risks to their business, thereby detecting vulnerabilities and avoiding disruptions."
"Over 40 million Americans are at risk of flooding from rivers, nearly 300,000 have lost their lives to the COVID pandemic, and close to $1 billion in costs will be borne annually by economies as they become victims to cyberattacks. The stakes are high, claiming both lives and resources. Businesses must look to invest in early warning systems that help future-proof them against the known and the unknown. Understanding risks and its levers can become a growth opportunity if used as a tool to create value," noted Archana Vidyasekar, Visionary Innovation Group Research Director at Frost & Sullivan.
To tap into growth opportunities emerging from the short-, mid- and long-term risks, organizations can focus on the following areas:
Short-term risks
Mid-term risks
Long-term risks
