Global Board Risk Survey

The EY Global Board Risk Survey reveals that boards need to take decisive action to optimize risk oversight and seize new strategic opportunities.

The EY Global Board Risk Survey reveals the views of 510 global board directors from organizations with greater than US$1b revenue across a number of industries. We uncover how leading boards are overseeing enterprise risk management and identify the three key areas of high-performing risk oversight:

  • Having a long-term perspective​
  • Making sure that risk management priorities are aligned with business strategy​
  • Focusing on emerging, atypical and external risks ​

To become leaders in risk oversight, the board itself should also review and rethink its composition and ways of operating.
