Details: AMCHAM has announced that it is organising an ABAL luncheon on Monday 14 March 2106 from 12:00 at the Parc Alvisse Hotel (120 Rte d'Echternach, L-1453 Luxembourg-Dommeldange), on the topic of RiskMap: What risks will your organisation be facing in 2016?
The security and political risk outlook looks worse than at any point in the past decade. Join Jonathan Wood, Director, Global Risk Analysis at Control Risks, over lunch to discuss the top risks which companies and organisations will face in 2016:
Terrorism and IS: The attacks in Beirut, Paris and Ankara have shown that Islamic State is capable of conducting high impact attacks not only close to its comfort zone but also far from its Syrian base. Hear the outlook for Islamic State as well as the civil war in Syria and how this conflict will continue to export instability around the globe including Europe and the USA.
Cyber-attacks: Hardware compromise, criminal attacks and nation-state espionage operations will be the top cyber risks for this year. With 45 nation-state attacks due to be involved in cyber espionage this year, what should companies and organisations do identify and protect against this new- age risk?
European Union: Reeling from a number of existential blows in recent times it seems that the EU is coming apart at the seams politically and economically. Facing pressures on its open borders as well as the threat of a British exit, where will this leave companies and organisations looking to operate in or with the EU in 2016?
“6% China”: What happens if Beijing can’t manage the economy’s deceleration? How will uncertainty over China’s capacity to adapt to a new era of 6% growth affect global markets?
We are living in an age of surprises. Agile start-ups can now subvert entire industries, firebrand celebrities can single-handedly alter a country’s political landscape and corrupt governments can now be jolted into reform by angry protests. These risks and many others will continue to threaten unprepared businesses. But it is important to remember that the world remains full of promise for the well- prepared investor.
Join the event to learn the risks and how to keep your company and organisation, family and self safe!
The cost of the luncheon is €46. A no-show policy will be enforced.
