Welcome to the Directors' and Officers' Survey Report 2024. This year marks our most expansive survey yet, with contributions from over 50 countries, highlighting our commitment to understanding the evolving risk landscape affecting directors and officers globally. The enhanced participation and expanded regional coverage allow us to offer unprecedented insights into the challenges and priorities facing leadership across various industries.
The primary objective of this survey is to identify and analyse the top risks perceived by directors and officers worldwide, tracking shifts in risk priorities and uncovering emerging threats. By doing so, we aim to equip organisations with the knowledge to enhance their risk management strategies and insurance practices effectively.
The survey methodology involved collecting responses from directors and officers and risk managers across more than 50 countries. This year, we expanded our focus to include new regions such as Africa and the Middle East, and have been able to provide a detailed analysis of more specific areas, including India. Our comprehensive approach ensures a diverse and inclusive understanding of the global risk environment.
The Global Directors’ and Officers’ Survey underscores the dynamic and complex nature of the risk landscape facing directors and officers today. By leveraging the insights and recommendations from this report, organizations can better navigate these challenges, enhancing their resilience and strategic response to risks. We encourage readers to engage with the full survey report and accompanying articles for a deeper dive into our findings and to join us in advancing the conversation around effective risk management and insurance solutions.
