This 10th edition of the Global Risks report published by the World Economic Forum warns of five environmental risks among the top risks than the economic ones. Interstate conflict with regional consequences is the top-most global risk in terms of likelihood, with water crises ranking highest in terms of impact.
[2]The 2015 edition of the Global Risks report completes a decade of highlighting the most significant long-term risks worldwide, drawing on the perspectives of experts and global decision-makers.
Over that time, analysis has moved from risk identification to thinking through risk interconnections and the potentially cascading effects that result. Taking this effort one step further, this year’s report underscores potential causes as well as solutions to global risks. Not only do set out a view on 28 global risks in the report’s traditional categories (economic, environmental, societal, geopolitical and technological) but also consider the drivers of those risks in the form of 13 trends.
