Product Description
An examination of the rapidly evolving state of political risk, and how to navigate it by former U.S. secretary of state Condoleezza Rice and Amy ZegartAn examination of the rapidly evolving state of political risk, and how to navigate it by former U.S. secretary of state Condoleezza Rice and Amy ZegartPolitical risk - the probability that a political action could significantly affect an organisation - is changing fast, and it's more widespread than ever before. A generation ago, political risk mostly involved a handful of industries in a few frontier markets. The chief concern used to be whether a foreign dictator would nationalize the country's oil industry or impose onerous new regulations. Today, political risk stems from a widening array of actors, including Twitter users, local officials, transnational activists, terrorists, hackers and insurgents. What's more, the very institutions and laws that are supposed to reduce uncertainty and risk are often increasing it instead - from outdated American laws designed to protect information networks to the unclear reach of European Union regulations into sovereign member states. In today's globalized world, there are no 'safe' bets. Political risk affects companies and organisations of all sizes, operating everywhere from Los Angeles to Lahore, even if they don't know it. POLITICAL RISK investigates and analyzes the shifting landscape, what businesses can do to navigate it, and what all of us can learn about how to better understand and deal with these rapidly changing global political dynamics.
