Cyber incidents ranked number one in 2016, 2017 and 2018 in South Africa.\u00a0Awareness of the cyber threat has grown rapidly in recent years, driven by companies\u2019 increasing reliance on data and IT systems and a number of high-profile incidents.

Preparing and planning for cyber and climate change risks is both a matter of competitive advantage and business resilience in the era of digitalization and global warming.\u201d<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>Cyber risks continue to evolve<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In addition to being the top risk in South Africa and globally,\u00a0<strong>Cyber incidents<\/strong>\u00a0is among the top three risks in: Austria, Belgium, France, India, South Korea, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, the UK and the US it also ranks as the top business risk. Businesses face the challenge of larger and more expensive data breaches, an increase in ransomware and spoofing incidents, as well as the prospect of privacy-driven fines or litigation after an event. A mega data breach \u2500 involving more than one million compromised records \u2500 now costs on average $42mn[1], up 8% year-on-year. \u201cIncidents are becoming more damaging, increasingly targeting large companies with sophisticated attacks and hefty extortion demands. Five years ago, a typical ransomware demand would have been in the tens of thousands of dollars. Now they can be in the millions,\u201d says\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/in\/marekstanislawski\/?originalSubdomain=se\" data-saferedirecturl=\"https:\/\/www.google.com\/url?q=https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/in\/marekstanislawski\/?originalSubdomain%3Dse&amp;source=gmail&amp;ust=1579257666887000&amp;usg=AFQjCNExShFsfU69pQ1NJAjfqrGz7HZreA\">Marek Stanislawski<\/a>, Deputy Global Head of Cyber, AGCS.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Extortion demands are just one part of the picture: Companies can suffer major BI losses due to the unavailability of critical data, systems or technology, either through a technical glitch or cyber-attack. \u201cMany incidents are the results of human error and can be mitigated by staff awareness trainings which are not yet a routine practice across companies,\u201d says Stanislawski.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>Business interruption \u2013 an undiminished threat with new causes<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">After seven years at the top globally and just over a year as a top risk in South Africa,\u00a0<strong>BI<\/strong>\u00a0drops to the second position in the Allianz Risk Barometer. However, the trend for larger and more complex BI losses continues unabated. Causes are becoming ever more diverse, ranging from critical infrastructure blackouts such as load shedding, fire, explosion or natural catastrophes to digital supply chains or even political violence. \u201cDigital supply chains and platforms today allow for full transparency and traceability of goods but a fire at a data center, a technical glitch or a hack could bring large BI losses for multiple companies that all rely and share the same system and which cannot switch back to manual processes,\u201d says\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/in\/rayhogendoorn\/?originalSubdomain=de\" data-saferedirecturl=\"https:\/\/www.google.com\/url?q=https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/in\/rayhogendoorn\/?originalSubdomain%3Dde&amp;source=gmail&amp;ust=1579257666887000&amp;usg=AFQjCNFJHSPyKtGhpKajLoHbHhan4Wf3Gw\">Raymond Hogendoorn<\/a>, Global Head of Property and Engineering Claims at AGCS.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Businesses are also increasingly exposed to the direct or indirect impact of riots, civil unrest or terrorism attacks. The past year has seen escalations in Hong Kong, Chile, Bolivia, Colombia and France, resulting in property damage, BI and general loss of income for both local and multinational companies as shops closed for months, customers and tourists stayed away or employees couldn\u2019t access their workplace due to safety concerns. Xenophobic attacks which happened in September last year affected businesses in South Africa and in Nigeria.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>Changes in legislation and regulation<\/strong>\u00a0retains third spot in the Allianz Risk Barometer in South Africa. Tariffs, sanctions, Brexit and protectionism were cited as key concerns. Around 1,300 new trade barriers were implemented in 2019 alone. The US-China trade dispute has brought the US average tariff close to levels last seen in the 1970s.\u00a0<strong>\u201c<\/strong>Trade policy\u00a0is becoming just another political tool for many different policy ends, such as economic diplomacy, geopolitical influence or environmental policy,\u201d explains Ludovic Subran, Chief Economist of Allianz. \u201cThis activism is not restricted to the US: it has spread to Japan and South Korea, India and the EU.\u201d<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">New regulatory challenges in the next decade will focus on environmental impact, de-carbonization and climate change. \u201cEU sustainability regulation is nothing less than a game changer. The impact on corporates will be as wide-ranging as that of the new rules on accounting and data protection were in the past,\u201d says Subran. Planned laws that businesses in South Africa need to ponder about include: land expropriation without compensation, climate change bill, nationalization of the South African Reserve Bank and National Health Insurance Bill (NHI).<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>Critical infrastructure blackouts (load shedding)<\/strong>\u00a0(23%) and\u00a0<strong>Macroeconomic developments\u00a0<\/strong>(17%) are new entrants to the top 10 as they are directly linked. \u201cSouth Africa is experiencing short-lived boom bust cycles. The power issue is the main trigger since the output capacity constraint is increasingly binding. This led to the downside in Q3. Along with lower access to power, energy-intensive sectors such as mining, manufacturing, construction and transport contracted. As a result, GDP growth should remain very low, since a solution to the overall power issue has not been found yet,\u201d says St\u00e9phane Colliac Senior Economist for France and Africa at Euler Hermes.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>Climate change brings added risk complexity<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>Climate change<\/strong>\u00a0rises to its highest-ever position of sixth in South Africa (and seventh globally) in the Allianz Risk Barometer and is already in the top three business risks for the Asia-Pacific region overall, driven by risk management experts in countries and territories such as Australia, Hong Kong, India and Indonesia. An increase in physical losses is the exposure businesses fear most (49% of responses) as rising seas, drier droughts, fiercer storms and massive flooding pose threats to factories and other corporate assets, as well as transport and energy links that tie supply chains together. Further, businesses are concerned about operational impacts (37%), such as relocation of facilities, and potential market and regulatory impacts (35% and 33%). Companies may have to prepare for more litigation in future \u2013 climate change cases targeting \u2018carbon majors\u2019 have already been brought in 30 countries around the world, with most cases filed in the US.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cThere is a growing awareness among companies that the negative effects of global warming above two degrees Celsius will have a dramatic impact,\u201d says\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/in\/chris-bonnet-31a4bb8\/?originalSubdomain=de\" data-saferedirecturl=\"https:\/\/www.google.com\/url?q=https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/in\/chris-bonnet-31a4bb8\/?originalSubdomain%3Dde&amp;source=gmail&amp;ust=1579257666887000&amp;usg=AFQjCNEekGvdfPzz2Hw6RMgxhClFqRWkPw\">Chris Bonnet<\/a>, Head of ESG Business Services at AGCS. \u201cFailure to take action will trigger regulatory action and influence decisions from customers, shareholders and business partners. Ignoring climate risk is more costly than grappling with it. Therefore, every company has to define its role, stance and pace for its climate change transition \u2013 and risk managers need to play a key role in this process alongside other functions.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-467636 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/www.kapitalafrik.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/Allianz-Risk-Barometer-2020-Snapshot-Map-Destkop.pdf-scaled.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"892\" height=\"2560\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.financialafrik.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/Allianz-Risk-Barometer-2020-Snapshot-Map-Destkop.pdf-scaled.jpg 892w, https:\/\/www.financialafrik.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/Allianz-Risk-Barometer-2020-Snapshot-Map-Destkop.pdf-105x300.jpg 105w, https:\/\/www.financialafrik.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/Allianz-Risk-Barometer-2020-Snapshot-Map-Destkop.pdf-209x600.jpg 209w, https:\/\/www.financialafrik.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/Allianz-Risk-Barometer-2020-Snapshot-Map-Destkop.pdf-768x2204.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.financialafrik.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/Allianz-Risk-Barometer-2020-Snapshot-Map-Destkop.pdf-535x1536.jpg 535w, https:\/\/www.financialafrik.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/Allianz-Risk-Barometer-2020-Snapshot-Map-Destkop.pdf-696x1998.jpg 696w, https:\/\/www.financialafrik.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/Allianz-Risk-Barometer-2020-Snapshot-Map-Destkop.pdf-1068x3066.jpg 1068w, https:\/\/www.financialafrik.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/Allianz-Risk-Barometer-2020-Snapshot-Map-Destkop.pdf-146x420.jpg 146w, https:\/\/www.financialafrik.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/Allianz-Risk-Barometer-2020-Snapshot-Map-Destkop.pdf-422x1210.jpg 422w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 892px) 100vw, 892px\" \/><\/p>\n<div class=\"pdfprnt-buttons pdfprnt-buttons-post pdfprnt-top-bottom-left\"><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>9th\u00a0annual survey on top business risks attracts record participation of 2,700+ experts from over 100 countries Cyber incidents have become more damaging and expensive for companies \u2013 and often result in lawsuits and litigation after the event Business interruption ranks second, but remains a key challenge with digitalization and civil unrest creating new causes of<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":536282,"featured_media":467635,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"aside","meta":{"pmpro_default_level":"","_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"translated_post_url_fr":"","_jetpack_feature_clip_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","jetpack_publicize_message":"","jetpack_publicize_feature_enabled":true,"jetpack_social_post_already_shared":true,"jetpack_social_options":{"image_generator_settings":{"template":"highway","default_image_id":0,"font":"","enabled":false},"version":2},"jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false},"categories":[16200,12046,12065],"tags":[16320,16319],"class_list":["post-467634","post","type-post","status-publish","format-aside","has-post-thumbnail","category-insurance","category-leaders-en","category-press-releases","tag-allianz-risk","tag-allianz-risk-barometer-2020","post_format-post-format-aside","pmpro-has-access"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v21.5 (Yoast SEO v28.0) - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-premium-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>Allianz Risk Barometer 2020: Cyber top peril for companies in South Africa - Financial Afrik<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"Headed by Adama Wade and his team of 20 journalists, Kapital Afrik offers strategic and financial information to executives and managers.
