As we come to the end of 2025, it’s clear Risk is evolving. With AI advances, budget constraints and an ever-changing world, effective risk management has never been more important.
This year’s top Risk Leadership Network insights, drawn from our work with our members, show that risk appetite and emerging risk continue to be top of mind for risk leaders. But there are also other challenges high on the agenda - specifically around how to leverage and manage AI, and how to integrate an opportunity mindset.
Read on for more detail on what has been on risk leaders’ minds this year.
Risk appetite theory and reality can often diverge. You may only learn what really works for your organisation once you've implemented it. Therefore, it’s not uncommon for risk leaders to renew their risk appetite framework after a couple of years. In this insight, we explore the 4 steps to follow as you refresh your appetite.
How do risk leaders identify, analyse and report on emerging risks? In this insight, we share the 5 key trends identified in our 2025 Emerging Risk Benchmark Report.
Many organisations in our network have begun to use AI, but while the technology offers many benefits, it also introduces governance and security challenges. In this insight, we highlight some of the approaches to AI that our members shared during collaborations.
How do risk leaders work with the business to not only embrace opportunities, but formalise an opportunity mindset into risk frameworks? In this insight, we share the 7 steps one Risk Leadership Network member followed to help their business shift its mindset.
The use of ChatGPT is a key consideration for many risk leaders in our network, but few have started using it in their day-to-day work. To support them on their journey, we arranged for a risk modelling expert to present at a virtual member meeting, showcasing how some risk leaders are successfully using ChatGPT to enhance their risk function. This insight shares some of the tips from that exclusive meeting.
Early next year, we'll be releasing the 2026 Risk Leaders' Agenda. Sourced from risk leaders in our network, it will share what they're prioritising to uplift risk management in their organisations in the next year. Sign up for blog alerts to be the first to know when this goes live.
