Risk & Insurance conducted a survey of 156 risk managers to take the pulse of the industry and get a better feel for what concerns experts in the field believe to be most pressing at the moment.
Nearly 1 out of 3 respondents listed cybersecurity as the most immediate risk that the organization they represent is currently grappling with. Next highest on the list of concerns was talent shortages, which more than 1 out of 4 respondents cited as a major factor going forward - followed by catastrophic events, which was a top issue for about 14% of respondents.
One issue that received perhaps surprisingly little attention was inflation, which fewer than 1 out of 10 respondents referenced as a pressing concern.
