The 9th Edition World Economic Forum’s Global Risks report, Global Risks 2014 examines some of the most pressing global, systemic risks to development and prosperity. Climate change and related risks feature prominently.
The report highlights how global risks are not only interconnected, but also have systemic impacts. To manage global risks effectively and build resilience to their impacts, better efforts are needed to understand, measure and foresee the evolution of interdependencies between risks, supplementing traditional risk-management tools with new concepts designed for uncertain environments.
