3、erREADING TIME:12 MIN 2023 Boston Consulting Group2The answer for very few companies will be yes.Risk has always outpaced risk management,but thescale,complexity,and interconnectedness of risk today presents companies with new challenges.(See“Risky Business.”)Risks today are complex,fluid,fast movin
4、g,and interconnected.Economic risks,including market volatility,industry disruption,and geopolitical upheaval,arepervasive.Technology-related risks are growing in type and number.BCG estimatesthat the global cost of cybercrime,for example,has soared from$445 billion in 2015 tomore than$2 trillion to
5、day and will only continue to rise.Regulators have become more vigilant.The 190 non-financial companies included infour global market indices were fined more than$200 billion between 2009 and 2022.Over the same period,North American and European banks were fined more than$400 billion.Human-related r
6、isks continue to evolve in new ways.The current shortage of talent,especially analytical and new technology capabilities,is an immediate challenge.Insome of advanced banks today 40%of all open job roles are AI related.Then theres climate change,which represents an entirely new driver of risk withunk
7、nown ramifications.A recent analysis we performed for an infrastructure companyrevealed that flooding and other natural disasters could reduce EBITDA by up to 8%inthe next five years.Compounding all of the above are the speed at which threats develop and theirinterconnectedness.Information spreads r

9、ach risk and integrate risk assessment into decisionmaking at all levels.Heres how to go about building it.RISKY BUSINESS 2023 Boston Consulting Group3A New Vision for Risk ManagementThis new and comprehensive approach to risk management starts with a risk function that is anchoredin the C-suite and
10、 involved directly in strategic decision making.It also requires mature businessfunctions that blend risk management into day-to-day decision making.The risk function must betightly connected with both the business and the finance functions and include the assessment offinancial and non-financial ri
11、sks(such as supply chain and other process-related risks).The technicaland analytical capabilities of the risk function should be used for decision making at all levels,makingoperations and processes more resilient.The goal is for risk management to operate as a control function that prevents indivi
12、dual risks fromreaching threatening levels while actively supporting the right risk-reward decisions.This riskmanagement approach is built on three pillars.(See the exhibit.)Growing the Company.To support a companys growth agenda,risk and business functions need towork together for timely and accura
13、te decision support.The risk function can provide the necessarydata and decision-relevant information for analytics to have impact,such as scenario analyses.Doing 2023 Boston Consulting Group4so requires new models of collaboration between risk and business that integrate the two more closelywhile m
14、aintaining the risk functions required independence.Analytics at customer or transaction levelenable best risk-return business decisions.Agile approaches,with their cross-functional team make-upand regular people rotation,are two ways to facilitate better understanding and collaboration betweenrisk
15、and business.Several banks are deploying advanced-analytics models to provide forward-looking information on theloan portfolio and risk-return analyses for commercial opportunities.These banks use customer-leveltransaction data to update old or unavailable financials,project future customer cash flo
16、ws in realtime,and assess the interconnections of clients with their customers and suppliers to identify supplychain risks.This real-time analysis helps make the right revenue-risk tradeoffs at the transaction level,generating significantly higher value from the portfolio.The banks use the same cust
17、omer data andrelated analysis(such as customer cash flow projections)for commercial needs(such as lending)andrisk assessment(affordability for the client),for example.To support a companys growth agenda,risk and business functions need to worktogether for timely and accurate decision support.Energy
18、companies can benefit from strategic decision making that is informed by continuousmonitoring of external metrics as they undertake large-scale transitions to renewable sources and newtechnologies.For one global energy player,this involved developing a detailed and well-defined riskappetite and clea
19、r governance with common understanding of the roles and responsibilities of relevantactors,enabling timely escalation in case of changing signals or alerts on the external environment.The new risk function provides an analytic infrastructure of metrics to monitor the evolution of variousscenarios an

21、models in the portfolio.Steering the Company.To further interconnect risk management and enterprise planning and helpbuild a more resilient organization,the risk function can support the finance function in understandingthe tradeoffs between risk and return in balance sheet planning.Companies need t
22、o be prepared formultiple stress scenarios.2023 Boston Consulting Group5In banking,the risk function traditionally has built and maintained a set of models for regulatorypurposes.Finance and risk management can join forces and use these models,which oen includealternatives to the baseline financial
23、planning exercise,to optimize the deployment of financialresources,including capital,liquidity,and funding.The planned P&L follows.To be effective,however,this collaboration requires integrated data platforms,structured processes,and strong teamingbetween the two functions.In other industries,the us
24、e of multiple scenarios to inform the planning process is equally applicableand will become more important over time.Companies can put in place a concrete framework thatenables them to screen,assess,and monitor potential internal and external adverse events that canimpede the achievement of defined
25、strategic objectives,such as entering a new market or boostingrevenues.This type of risk steering initiative is particularly valuable when the organization hasdeployed an ambitious strategic plan,embarked on a wide transformation program,or made a gamechanging investment decision.It involves a scena
26、rio-based assessment of the probability and likelyfinancial impact of potential adverse events,based on historical observation,current market trends,and expert judgement.In a world of risk-based multi-scenario planning,GenAI can dramatically transformplanning activities.A leading international fashi
27、on and luxury goods company,for example,has recently used thisapproach to identify more than 20 forward-looking scenarios across multiple risk categories(such assupply chain,image and reputation,service channel,and business interruption).It prioritized scenariosmore likely to endanger the new plans
28、chances for success,according to the potential impacts atvarying revenues level.For each of these“top scenarios,”the relevant risk management units and thebusiness agreed on a set of KPIs and related mitigation actions in the event that identified thresholdsare breached.In a world of risk-based mult
29、i-scenario planning,GenAI can dramatically transform planning activitiesin multiple ways,enabling a new operating model and at the same time streamlining activities andcosts.These include:Generating first dras of documentation,scenario descriptions,and potential regulatory impactanalyses.2023 Boston

40、ercriminals,and employees,for example)with a variety of motivations(such as data disclosure andasset destruction)have access to similar attack methods(such as hacking and phishing followed bythe and extortion).Growing numbers of connections among a companys own IT function,itsoperational technology
41、and the Internet of Things,as well as overlapping tools,data,and processeslead to threats that start in one environment more easily spreading to others.Fusing risk management capabilities across the various types of risks and technologies can generateboth effectiveness and efficiency benefits.The ri

43、 technology and data capabilities,includingdata management platforms and advanced analytics,are key to both efforts.Companies in multiple industries have realized 20%to 30%staff synergies by joining forces inmultidisciplinary teams.Integrating case management and documenting end-to-end decision maki
