Report: Infectious diseases and cyberattacks the main risks for our country

Infectious diseases and the lack of infrastructure to protect against cyber attacks are the two main concerns of Albanian executives according to the latest report of the Global Economic Forum, which has identified the main global risks for 2023 in its latest report "Global Risks Report 2023 ".

The third concern is the rapid rise in inflation, followed by geopolitical problems causing the raw materials crisis. The fifth concern is the food supply crisis.

The study, a co-production of consultants Marsh McLennan and Zurich Insurance Group, took into account the views of more than 1,200 global risk experts, policymakers and industry leaders. This report is based on the Global Risk Perception Survey (GRPS) that has been conducted for two decades. Responses to the survey were collected from September 7 to October 5, 2022.

Last year, although the Covid 19 pandemic was at its peak, infectious diseases were the fifth concern of Albanian executives, while the first was the political crisis (fluctuations in interstate relations), followed by human-made environmental damage; then deficiencies in cyber security measures and fourth the debt crisis.

The concerns raised by the Albanian leaders in the 2023 report are also different from the global ones, where the "Energy Supply Crisis" prevails, which is the first, followed by the "Cost of Living Crisis"; "Rising inflation"; "Food supply crisis" and "infrastructure to protect against cyber attacks"

Report

The cost of living crisis will be the biggest global risk over the next two years, warned the Global Risks Report, published by the World Economic Forum.

Global inflation remains high as energy and food costs rose last year following Russia's invasion of Ukraine.

Supply constraints caused by the coronavirus pandemic have also contributed to decades-higher consumer prices.

"Conflict and geo-economic tensions have caused a series of interconnected global risks.

These include energy and food supply difficulties, which are likely to continue for the next two years, accompanied by large increases in the cost of living and debt servicing."

The report also states that "such crises risk undermining efforts to address long-term risks, particularly those related to climate change, biodiversity and investment in human capital."

The report described the cost of living crisis as the "biggest near-term risk" to 2025, followed by natural disasters, extreme weather events and "geo-economic crash".

"Short-term risks are dominated by energy, food, debt and disasters," said Saadia Zahidi, a managing director at the Forum.

The report called on "leaders to act collectively and decisively, balancing short-term and long-term views."
