Our Dynamic Risk Assessment (DRA) of the Top 10 Risks for businesses goes beyond the traditional severity and likelihood metrics, focusing instead on velocity, which is the speed at which a risk's impact will be felt, and contagion, or how likely it is that a risk will trigger other risks should it occur. With the help of DRA, we are able to visualize Eurasia Group's Top Risks in a way that helps us represent them as a network, with each risk node being affected by and influenced by other risk nodes in the larger network.
