📢 Are We Risk Literate Enough?   For the longest time, my intellectual passion has been our collective approach to risk, both current and future. This is why I was surprised after reading a recent study conducted in nine countries in CEE by Vienna Insurance Group (VIG). It revealed a concerning trend: two-thirds of respondents showed a clear weakness in correctly categorizing risks and could not find preventative solutions or take appropriate safeguards against them. In light of these findings, I was excited to sit down with Hartwig Löger, CEO of VIG, to discuss whether our societies are truly risk-literate enough. We delved into the reasons why organizations often prioritize environmental issues over transforming social aspects of their operations and why it is crucial to address this imbalance.   Our conversation highlighted the need for a more comprehensive approach to risk management that encompasses both environmental and social dimensions.   Join us in a dialogue on how we can collectively enhance our risk literacy and create a safer, more resilient future for all 👉 https://lnkd.in/dYFhX-kM #HORIZON #riskmanagement
