Greatest Levels of Political and Economic Uncertainty in a Decade

The World Economic Forum has released a new report warning that the international community is facing the greatest levels of political and economic uncertainty in a decade. Global Risks 2008 highlights four major issues that will impact the world economy in the near future: systematic financial risk, food security, energy, and supply chain vulnerability associated with trade.

The report’s analysis is based on input obtained from top business leaders, decision-makers, scientists, and academics. To read more, click here. To access the full report PDF, click here.
