In this episode of On Aon, Joe Peiser, CEO of Commercial Risk, and Richard Waterer, Global Risk Consulting Leader, unpack the major findings from Aon’s 2025 Global Risk Management Survey — and what Risk Management leaders can do to remain resilient in the face of increasingly systemic and interconnected risks.

They explore the critical role of analytics in understanding evolving threats and highlight three traits that distinguish highly resilient organizations: insight, agility and collaboration.

Key Takeaways:

Many of the top risks in Aon’s Global Risk Management Survey are broad and interconnected, impacting multiple areas of business.
Cyber Risk remains the top concern globally. The rapid adoption of AI is intensifying risk complexity. Artificial Intelligence is itself a top 10 future risk.
A persistent gap exists between risk awareness and action. Organizations, need better data and analytics to build accurate risk profiles.
Resilient organizations are those that can quantify exposures, optimize capital allocation and embed risk strategy into decision making.

Soundbites:

Joe Peiser:

“Business leaders can't simply manage more risk by intuition. They really need the tools and the insights from those tools to interpret today's landscape and make decisions that help them survive and thrive.”

Richard Waterer:

“We were surprised to see Attracting and Retaining Top Talent fall out of this year's top 10. When you consider the challenges being brought about by workforces today, for example, healthcare costs in North America, new legislation on pay transparency in EMEA, you can understand why talent is a complex and costly issue for leaders.
