Your expertise matters.  Contribute to our Top Risks Survey.

Dear ERM leader,

Your professional expertise is invaluable.

Every year, in collaboration with global consulting firm Protiviti, the ERM Initiative surveys leaders like you to identify emerging risks, assess their potential impact, and provide a comprehensive view of the short- and longer-term risk landscape.

The resulting report, "Executives Perspective on Top Risks" is one of our most widely accessed resources.

We invite you to lend your insights by completing our Top Risks Survey.

• We'll ask you to identify the top risks likely to affect businesses in 2024, with a particular focus on differences in risk perceptions across industries and geographic regions. We also ask you to consider these risks over a longer time horizon (over the next 10 years).
• Rest assured, your responses will be kept strictly confidential, and your individual responses will remain anonymous.
• Completion of this survey should require no more than 20 to 30 minutes of your time.

Your contribution will make a significant difference to advance ERM within organizations, and we are grateful for your time and insights.
