- war (23%)
- extreme weather (14%)
On global cybersecurity a recent WEF report suggests that in 2025
- Increased integration of and dependence on more complex supply chains is leading to a more opaque and unpredictable risk landscape
– The rapid adoption of emerging technologies is contributing to new vulnerabilities as cybercriminals harness them effectively to achieve greater sophistication and scale
– Simultaneously, the proliferation of regulatory requirements around the world is adding a significant compliance burden for organizations.
- All of these challenges are exacerbated by a widening skills gap, making it extremely challenging to manage cyber risks effectively.
And their Chief Economists January outlook for 2025 basically says
- A majority of chief economists (56%) expect the global economy to weaken
- Yet strong growth is expected in the USA and India
- Significant majorities also expect increased barriers to labour mobility and transfers of technology and data.
- Consensus that protectionism will cause durable changes to trade patterns over the next three years
- The chief economists expect growing regionalization of trade, as well as a continuation of a gradual shift in the composition of trade from goods to services (generally advanced economies tend to benefit more than developing economies from services trade)
