Client story - World Business Council for
Sustainable Development
"However, ESG-related risks can be difficult to identify,
quantify and prioritize. It requires a deep understanding of
the business operating environment and leadership that
acknowledges and accepts the evolving external landscape.
On a technical level, the process must move beyond
traditional impact versus likelihood analysis to consider
the interconnectivity and speed of onset of these risks."
"Because of these challenges, the World Business
Council for Sustainable Development (WBCSD) engaged
KPMG, through its process known as Dynamic Risk
Assessment."

The current risk landscape for business has changed as all of the top five risks
identified for likelihood were environmental according to the World Economic
Forum Global Risk Report in 2020. In addition, the complexities and connectivity
of environmental, social and governance (ESG)-related risks mean companies
must assess risks not just individually, but as an interconnected and aggregated
group.
This report on the food and agriculture sector is intended to help companies
more effectively assess their exposure to food system challenges and to
integrate this knowledge into target setting and solution building.
It presents analyses from the application of an enhanced risk assessment
technique - KPMG's Dynamic Risk Assessment methodology - to the risk
landscape represented by the perspectives of nine leading companies operating
in the food and agricultural sector. This report dives into how a dynamic risk
assessment can improve companies' risk practices and
identify crucial aspects to continue creating long-term value.
This report is a continuation of WBCSD's risk work and the guidance built in
collaboration with COSO on Applying Enterprise Risk Management to
Environmental, Social and Governance-related Risks.
