Recommendation

Natural disasters are an unfortunate aspect of life, but should businesses always avoid investing in disaster-prone regions? Companies need reliable risk information to answer this question. Thus, the United Nations Office for Disaster Risk Reduction commissioned the Economist Intelligence Unit to study this issue. The ensuing report analyzes 20 countries to aid firms’ assessments of hazard exposure. getAbstract recommends these unique and insightful country profiles to policy makers and business executives interested in a better understanding of “tail risks.”

Take-Aways

  • Companies often see natural disasters as “tail risk” events that are difficult to gauge and so fail to plan for them in business investment decisions.
  • The UN’s Private Sector Alliance for Disaster Resilient Societies (ARISE) aims to shift the attention of companies as well as society toward embracing proactive risk management initiatives rather than resorting to one-off disaster responses.
  • An ARISE model can measure how much exposure an enterprise has to disaster risk in 20 different countries.
