Join ECIIA and the European Institute Research Group (EIRG) on Thursday, 27 November at 10:00 CET for an in-depth discussion on Macroeconomic and geopolitical uncertainty.
The Risk in Focus 2026 report highlighted global tariffs on exports creating significant challenges for businesses, with unpredictability becoming the new norm. Coupled with ongoing conflicts in Ukraine and Gaza, these factors have contributed to this risk ranking fourth in this year’s survey. There is also a growing concern about the increasing likelihood of an economic downturn and financial instability. Political and regulatory uncertainty adds further complexity, with domestic politics in Europe emerging as an escalating issue.
During the webinar, attention will be paid to:
- The main audit areas covered in this webinar will include strategic risk interpretation and financial resilience, understanding Geopolitical Risk, Trade Disruption and ESG Pressures.
- The role of internal audit in auditing this risk area as well as ideas for good practice.
- Tips on evolving your audit practice and workforce capability when it comes to auditing this area.
This webinar is an opportunity to ask questions and gain valuable insights on auditing macroeconomic and geopolitical uncertainty while supporting your organisation on this strategic topic.
