The results from Protiviti’s Executive Perspectives on Top Risks in 2023 and 2032 Survey captures insights from 1,304 C-level executives and directors across multiple industries, with broad geographic representation. As with prior annual surveys, the results captured the most important uncertainties by industry, executive position, company size and type, and geographic area. The survey was conducted online during the September-October time frame to capture perspectives on the minds of executives regarding risks over the short term (2023) and over the long term, with a 10-year horizon through 2032.

This issue of Board Perspectives summarizes nine key takeaways from the survey and ranks the highest-rated risk themes in order of priority.
