As business leaders it’s essential we take time to reflect on the lessons of the past year and how they can inform our strategies for the future.

Gallagher’s The Year Ahead 2025 report, now in its second year, is designed to help you navigate this evolving landscape.

Much has changed in recent years. Risk management has become increasingly important as organisations recognise the need for preparedness and resilience. The risk landscape remains volatile and deeply interconnected, with geopolitical shifts, natural disasters, and cyber-attacks emerging as key sources of disruption and loss in the year ahead. This underscores the critical need for robust risk management strategies and contingency planning.

In partnership with a panel of our specialists, this report provides essential insights into the challenges and opportunities that lie ahead.

Our aim is to equip you with the knowledge and foresight needed to approach the year ahead with confidence and clarity.

Key insights include:

  • The growing integration of AI and automation into business operations is transforming industries, presenting both opportunities and challenges
  • Ongoing global conflicts will continue to impact international relations and security
  • While inflation should further stabilise through 2025, high energy costs and supply chain disruptions will continue to exert pressure
