Executive planning cycles and geopolitical risk

  • Shorter planning cycles
  • Geopolitical risk
  • Fallback options

Seven in ten US executives plan at shorter intervals and almost half of companies worldwide have shortened their planning cycle, because geopolitical events move faster than their view of the risks. Among non-executive directors, geopolitical risk rose from 15th to 7th place in a year.
